I received a DUI in Missouri nine years ago and didn't take care of it until two years ago. I received two years of probation which will be ending in May of this year. This was a deferred offense, and as far as I understand it will not be on my record as of May. Will this prohibit me from getting my permit? Also, I work at a brewery in Omaha and was wondering if I do receive my permit, am I allowed to carry there since 100% of our sales are derived from alcohol? That being said...only 5% of our sales are sold directly to the public.Thanks for any info.

Lunchbox:
Go here on the Nebraska State Patrol website: http://statepatrol.nebraska.gov/forms/ccw/CCWRegs.pdf (http://statepatrol.nebraska.gov/forms/ccw/CCWRegs.pdf)
Go to Section 005 - Permit Eligibility.
Read the requirements. See if they fit your case.
Now, the Brewery: If the Brewery allows you to do so and you do not drink a drop of the Brew while carrying a concealed handgun, you'll be OK.

Good question. I'm not sure how they treat DUIs in regard to obtaining a CHP. If I had to guess, I'd say alcohol was a controlled substance, and since DUI is a violation regarding a controlled substance, it might prevent you from getting a CHP. I'd apply and see what happens. Worst case is you wait another year, as the law says "in the last ten years".

When probation ends you should be OK

I was hoping that was the case. I wasn't planning on applying until June. I suppose I will find out.
Thank you everyone for the info.

I believe that you can call the NSP and get some information about your qualifications. I think it was a $15 charge to have them do a check for eligibility. It would be redone when you actually go for your permit, but would save you the wait to find out it was not approved.
