Penalties for Conviction in New Jersey Under N.J.S.A. 2C:39-10(g), Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption

January 13, 2020 by Mathew Reisig

If you falsify information on an application to get around New Jersey’s limit on handgun purchases, you’re facing a serious felony charge with enhanced penalties.

Under N.J.S.A. 2C:39-10(g), Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption, it is a crime of the third degree in New Jersey to give or cause to be given any false information, or to knowingly engage in any other fraudulent conduct, in applying for an exemption to purchase more than one handgun in a 30-day period.

If you’re convicted of violating 2C:39-10(g), you’ll be sentenced to prison for three to five years, but unlike most crimes of the third degree in New Jersey, the statute explicitly rules out the normal presumption of non-incarceration.

hat means that if convicted, you’ll have to serve time in custody, away from your family, and out of the community. You’ll also face fines of up to $15,000, and of course, you’ll have to live with a felony record, possibly for the rest of your life.

It doesn’t have to be this way. While there are no guarantees, your odds with a lawyer representing you are considerably better than without one. If you’ve been charged with Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption, call Matthew Reisig today at 732-385-3339 for a free consultation.

New Jersey Criminal Defense Attorney for Charges Under N.J.S.A. 2C:39-10(g), Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption

January 13, 2020 by Mathew Reisig

Lying on an application so you can purchase more than one handgun in a 30-day period in New Jersey is a serious crime. There are very good reasons why the state isn’t keen on letting people suddenly stockpile handguns, and under 2C:39-10(g), Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption, it is a felony to make misrepresentations that allow you to get around the state’s limitations on handgun purchases.

You can be sentenced to as long as five years in prison, and unlike most crimes of the third degree in the state, there is no presumption of non-incarceration.

If you’re facing charges of Providing False Information for Handgun Purchase Exemption, understand that you have an uphill fight ahead of you and that prosecutors take these charges very seriously.

Get the best possible outcome in your 2C:39-10(g) case by calling Matthew Reisig today at 732-385-3339 to talk an experienced New Jersey gun charges attorney for free.

Penalties for Conviction in New Jersey Under N.J.S.A. 2C:39-10(f), Providing False Information on Gun Applications (Transfer of Handgun to a Person Under 21)

January 13, 2020 by Mathew Reisig

In New Jersey, it is a crime of the third degree to knowingly sell, give, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of a handgun to a person who is under 21, unless they are authorized to possess it for official duties like law enforcement or military service.

This is all spelled out in the statute N.J.S.A. 2C:39-10(f), Providing False Information on Gun Applications (Transfer of Handgun to a Person Under 21).

If you are convicted of a crime of the third degree under 2C:39-10(f), you can be sentenced to a three to five year prison term, and fines of up to $15,000. You’ll also have a permanent felony record that will get in your way when it comes to all sorts of life opportunities.

Perhaps the only good news for charges of Providing False Information on Gun Applications (Transfer of Handgun to a Person Under 21) is that crimes of the third degree in New Jersey generally carry a presumption of non-incarceration, meaning that if your record is relatively clean and you have a good lawyer representing your rights, there are good odds that you’ll serve your sentence at home, in the community, and able to support your family or continue your studies.

If you’ve been charged with Providing False Information on Gun Applications (Transfer of Handgun to a Person Under 21) under 2C:39-10(f), protect yourself from the worst consequences. Call Matthew Reisig today at 732-385-3339 for a free consultation with an experienced New Jersey criminal defense attorney.

If I’m Convicted Of A Weapons Charge In New Jersey, Do I Lose My 2nd Amendment Rights?

December 11, 2014 by Matthew Reisig

Conviction on any number of crimes can result in an ineligibility to receive a firearms permit in New Jersey, but the specifics matter a lot.

Domestic violence crimes can result in a lifetime ban, while other disorderly and misdemeanor offenses may have no impact on your ability to get a permit.

Felony convictions can also produce a lifetime ban on firearms permits in New Jersey.

Many offenses are subject to expungement after a period of time, if all terms of your sentence have been completed satisfactorily.

Expungement is a way of, in effect, erasing the record of a criminal conviction and restoring your status as though you’d never been convicted.

This process can be used to reinstate your 2nd Amendment rights in New Jersey, though it is not available for all criminal convictions.

To learn whether your 2nd Amendment rights are in jeopardy from a current criminal charge, and whether you can regain them through expungement if convicted, call Matthew Reisig at 732-625-9661 today for a free consultation.
