AI Summary

This bill extends the time period for individuals with suspended or revoked handgun carry permits to petition the chancery court for judicial review from 30 days to 45 days. Specifically, the bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 39-17-1354(a), increasing the window of time a person has to challenge the Tennessee Department of Safety's final determination regarding their handgun carry permit. This change provides permit holders with additional time to prepare and file a legal challenge if their permit has been suspended or revoked. The amendment will take effect on July 1, 2025, as stated in the bill's second section. While the change may seem minor, it offers individuals more opportunity to seek judicial review of administrative decisions affecting their gun permit status, potentially providing more due process protection for permit holders.
