Bill Summary

As introduced, increases, from 30 to 45, the number of days a sheriff has to provide the department of safety with any information that is within the knowledge of the sheriff concerning an applicant's truthfulness on an application for an enhanced handgun carry permit. - Amends TCA Title 38; Title 39 and Title 40.

AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee law to extend the timeframe for sheriffs to provide information to the Department of Safety regarding an applicant's truthfulness on an application for an enhanced handgun carry permit. Specifically, it changes the deadline from thirty (30) days to forty-five (45) days, meaning sheriffs will have more time to submit any relevant information they possess about an applicant's honesty when applying for this permit, which allows individuals to carry a handgun in more places than a standard permit.
