Louisiana Attorney General Reports June 12, 2003 (Opinion Number)

Dear Mr. Dennis: You have requested an opinion of this office on three questions: 1. Does the language in La.R.S. 15:95.1 restore the right to possess a firearm to an individual convicted of any felony in Louisiana prior to 1974? R.S. 14:95.1 does not restore a convicted felon's right to possess a firearm but sets up a protocol for exemptions from the prohibition contained therein.
