SB 504

Abstract

Amends the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. Provides that a person who receives a revocation notice under the Act and refuses to surrender his or her Firearm Owner's Identification Card to the local law enforcement agency where the person resides and complete a Firearm Disposition Record within 48 hours commits a Class 2 felony when he or she has been admonished by the court under the Code of Criminal Procedure regarding his or her inability to own or possess firearms or firearm ammunition. Amends the Code of Criminal Procedure of 1963. Provides that if the defendant pleads guilty to any felony offense, domestic battery, aggravated domestic battery, or any other offense which would prohibit the defendant from acquiring or possessing firearms or firearm ammunition, the plea shall not be accepted until the defendant signs a written acknowledgment indicating whether the defendant is currently in possession of any firearms, that the defendant understands he or she cannot own or possess a firearm or firearm ammunition under State and federal law, and that any firearms in his or her possession must be confiscated by the local law enforcement agency where the defendant resides in accordance with the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
