Current Bill Summary

SB 1327 - This act provides that a federally licensed firearms dealer may decline to sell a firearm to a person who has been placed on a restricted list. Each circuit court shall develop a form to be made available on the court's website for an individual to request inclusion or removal from a temporary restricted list or an indefinitely restricted list. The circuit court shall verify the individual's identity and shall not accept a form from someone other than the individual named on the form. Within 24 hours, the court shall add the individual's name to the Missouri State Highway Patrol to be added to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).

Any individual who has been added to the temporary or indefinite restricted list may request removal after a certain period of time as provided in the act. Additionally, an individual may renew his or her request to remain on the temporary restricted list after 150 days. The circuit court shall destroy all records after an individual as been removed from a restricted list and shall remove the individual from NICS.

If an individual who is added to a restricted list holds a concealed carry permit, the permit shall be suspended and shall not be reinstated until the individual is removed from a restricted list, unless the permit is otherwise suspended.
