Current Processing/Waiting Time for CHP Permits?
bullit:
"The law was changed in 2010. 69-2430 (3)(b) states they have 45 days to issue renewed permit.".
That is absolutely INCORRECT. The NSP has 45 calendar days to issue a permits. Renewal permits must be issued within 5 business days. You misread the statute. Prior to 2010, the NSP had "within five business days after completion of the applicant's criminal history record information check" to issue a permit (mind you the first renewals never occurred until 2012).
In short, the NSP is failing to be in compliance it appears. Jon Bruning was an aggressive AG who reminded them of such. Not seeing that current AG Peterson is all that concerned. His office has the power to do something.
sidearm1:
"(3)(a) Until January 1, 2010, the permit to carry a concealed handgun shall be issued by the Nebraska State Patrol within five business days after completion of the applicant's criminal history record information check, if the applicant has complied with this section and has met all the requirements of section 69-2433.
(b) Beginning January 1, 2010, the permit to carry a concealed handgun shall be issued by the Nebraska State Patrol within forty-five days after the date an application for the permit has been made by the applicant if the applicant has complied with this section and has met all the requirements of section 69-2433."
Please highlight where I misread. According to the trooper I talked to, when you renew, you are applying for a permit to carry concealed.
LJUnaTIC:
Nebraska Administrative code chapter 21 section 11
sidearm1:
The administrative code on the state patrols website was last changed in 2012, Under the Administrative Procedures Act. a state statute has precedence over an administrative code, The statute has the power of law, the administrative code is an employees interpretation of that statute. Of course all this is academic since it seems no one has the funds to file suit against the state patrol. Until that happens we can word smith all we want and nothing will change. It will take a court opinion to change anything. Just for renewal purposes check your permit and at 89 days, electronically file for renewal. Then if is takes 50 days to get your permit, you are still good to go.
LJUnaTIC:
The Concealed Handgun Permit Act grants the power to promulgate and adopt rules and regulations for the administration of the act to the Nebraska State Patrol.
Thus, the Nebraska Administrative code, chapter 21, as written by the Nebraska State Patrol, as authorized by LB454, has all the power of the statutes it was written to administer.
