Establishes priority for certain firearm-related background checks when applicant has obtained domestic violence restraining order.

This bill requires New Jersey's firearm background check system to prioritize applications from individuals who have obtained domestic violence restraining orders against their abusers. The bill amends state law to ensure that when an applicant has a restraining order in effect under the Prevention of Domestic Violence Act of 1991, their background check takes precedence over other applicants' checks. The application forms for firearm permits and identification cards will now include a question about whether the applicant has such a restraining order to flag these applications for priority processing. This change aims to help domestic violence victims more quickly obtain necessary documentation to legally possess firearms for their protection. The bill does not change who is prohibited from owning firearms, but rather streamlines the process for those who have legal protections in place.
