Bill Summary
AN ACT To amend and reenact R.S. 14:95.1(A), relative to illegal possession of a firearm or concealed carry of a weapon; to prohibit possession of a firearm or carrying a concealed weapon by persons convicted of certain felonies; to provide for consideration of certain juvenile offenses; and to provide for related matters.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Louisiana law to prohibit possession of firearms, ammunition, or electric weapons by certain felons. Specifically, it prohibits possession by individuals convicted of violent felonies, burglary, illegal use of weapons, drug crimes, or sex offenses. The bill also applies this prohibition to individuals who committed certain felony-level juvenile delinquent acts involving firearms, if they were 15 or 16 years old at the time and are under 22 years old when violating the law. However, the prohibition does not apply to those who have been accepted into military service.
