Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. Provides that a person who has been denied an application for a Firearm Owner's Identification Card or whose Card was revoked or seized for certain specified reasons may petition the circuit court in the county where the original charges which were the bases of the denial, revocation, or seizure were brought (rather than the circuit court in the county of the petitioner's residence). If the act for which the denial, revocation, or seizure was given is based on an out-of-state criminal offense, then the person may petition the circuit court in the county of the petitioner's residence. Provides that a copy of the petition must be served on the State's Attorney of the county where the petition is brought and the Department of State Police. Provides that at the hearing on the petition, the Department may present evidence and object to the petition.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. Provides that a person who petitions the circuit court for the issuance of an order directing the Department of State Police to issue a Firearm Owner's Identification Card, because the Department has denied his or her application, failed to act upon the person's request for issuance of the Card, or has revoked his or her Card, the petitioner must serve the State's Attorney of the county in which the petition is brought and the State's Attorney of the county in which the conviction occurred with a copy of the petition. Provides that the State's Attorney of the county where the petition is brought may object to the petition and present evidence at the hearing on the petition.
