I would assume to brow beat you, but I think cal is right, intimidation. Probably to dissuade people from going through with it. Everything in this godforsaken state is based upon making it just a little harder, or inconvenient. 18 hours ago, ToddD said: Burlington County Update: Hearings are required! Just spoke with Judge Cooks office, not Alex who handles the courts firearms permitting. In person hearings are required. Mine is set for 9/12 at 10:00. Apparently my notice should be here today. If not, probably Tuesday. But they were mailed. They’re getting back to me on whether or not the judge will issue permit on the spot or mail back to PD. Also, no word on whether or not we’ll see these absurd restriction via court order like other counties. Guess we’ll find out soon. Not thrilled about this but at least it’s moving forward. If I'm going to be bothered with taking a day off to go to court it should be issued at that meeting. Why do they suck? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The process for the carry permit hasn't been revised so they kept the court appearance portion of it and it's a stupid visit with some stupid questions. Many people have already talked about their court appearance experience and none of them had anything unpleasant to say about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many people have already talked about their court appearance experience and none of them had anything unpleasant to say about it. Consider that Prior to Bruen, the courts were the place where permits were denied. That was the states way to prevent and intimidate applicants from applying. They can no longer prevent the issuance, but they sure can intimidate applicants by the process alone.. PDs were adding similar kinds of "meetings" for FPIDs with additional criteria to dissuade people from applying. Our courts are swamped and under staffed, by judges etc... the fact they haven't rubber stamped the process tells you they want to continue having a finger on the pulse of who gets permits and who doesn't. Two of the criteria they are responsible for over seeing is already conducted at the administrative level.. the courts only responsibility is to add restrictions to the permit, which post Bruen should only indicate sensitivity places... and IMO that should be legislatively done because Bruen requires objective, and not a judge's subjective opinion. Case in point, everyone's permits should contain the same exact restrictions, otherwise there is no objectivity to them. So it does seem to continue to be part of a process to dissuade people from applying. 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That some judge is going to tell you it's ok to practice your second amendment right after having met every dumb requirement that the state has set forth. It's just nonsense. On top of that were already seeing judges make up laws as they go. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,872 Posted September 3, 2022 Seeing that it's now SHALL issue, there should be no reason to go to the courts at all. We need to support Jay Factor's Lawsuit #087269 fighting against the "requirement" of a case-by-case review in Superior Court. Judges will no longer have the ability to question applicants on an UNCONSTITUTIONAL CASE-BY-CASE basis post-Bruen SCOTUS decision of June 23, 2022. Judges will no longer be able to instruct their staff to DELAY applications, slow-walking them through a 50+ year old overburdened and antique RED-TAPE series of built-in DELAYS. CNJFO has a matching funds page - the org is matching up to $5000 to help fund Jay Factor's fight to make this better for all of us. https://www.cnjfo.com/page-18138 2 2 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrAceJD 21 Posted September 4, 2022 Sounds like Monmouth County changed the Judge responsible for reviewing carry permit applications. Not sure what this means but I think it at least suggests that the Judge who was allegedly refusing to advance applications isn't part of the process anymore. Not confirmed. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shortfuse 39 Posted September 4, 2022 Anyone know if any Lawyers or Organizations are working on eliminating some of the restrictions on the Ocean County Approved Permits especially #11 and what to do if you've already received your carry permit and someone gets some of these restrictions dropped Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is employment related. My friend should have his ocean county permit back in the next week or so. As soon as he gets it back I will post it and then we will know if this is something to get our panties in a bunch over. I find this forum helpful, but there is so much fake news being spread on here to get people worked up it’s insane! 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schrödinger's cat 87 Posted September 4, 2022 I must have done something different than many, I got a money order from my bank. I have seen that people keep track of when the MO was cashed so I asked how I can check that. I was told that I cannot see that information, it is only possible with a cashiers check.

You made the same mistake that I did -- not going to a USPS branch to get the MO, which is trackable. EDIT: I can't track my bank-issued MO either.

Schrödinger's cat 87 Posted September 4, 2022 I just asked a friend from ocean county that got his a few weeks ago. His permit is completely unrestricted and he did not get any letter with restrictions from the court. It may be that this is something that was added later, I’ll ask some others. I dropped off my application at Jackson PD last week and they said they had only sent 8-10 applications to the courts so far. I don’t know if the clerk knew what she was talking about though.
