AB 1498 California Assembly · 2009-2010 Regular Session

Firearms: possession.

Summary
Existing law provides that a person convicted of specified misdemeanor crimes who, within 10 years of the conviction, owns, purchases, receives, or has in his or her possession or under his or her custody or control any firearm is guilty of a public offense, which shall be punished as specified. This bill would additionally include within this provision specified misdemeanor crimes relating to weapons and to criminal street gang activity. Because this bill would change the punishment of a crime, it would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
