The criminal division judge in Sussex is Hon. Michael C. Gaus. It is likely that he is supposed to be doing permits.

I mean jury duty is such a nothingburger. Every time I've been up, they don't select me and I am good for another few years.

It probably was mine. You should seek legal advice on that. Unless you've lost eyesight or a limb I don't see it being an issue.

Leave a message. They'll call back the same day. That's what I did.

Local PD does not send anything to NJSP. They do their own investigation and processing.

If you have a local PD it does not go to the division. But if your town uses NJSP then it goes down there. My understanding is that the barracks is really just intake and initial investigation, collecting references etc. The real processing happens in Trenton at FIU. As for where this is they have a guide but so far have refused to release or make it public. NJ2AS and others have been trying to get it through legal means. I don’t know if they’ve been successful. You’re correct.

The “division” is FIU in Trenton. Based on my application which was submitted July 11 and sent to the court on August 10, I would say about a month or so is what it takes. Of course the apps are now just sitting at the court, with no action. I don’t know what it will take to move it, but something has to give. They can absolutely have a Morris county judge sign it (same vicinage) if that judge isn’t signing for whatever reason. But something has got to give. These delays are simply unacceptable.

Gaus and another judge replaced Conforti. Gaus is a Christie appointee. So it’s very likely that Gaus as the only criminal judge in Sussex is assigned to signing.

One person also told me it’s with the judge but he didn’t seem sure. My money order was cashed so I don’t even know if that means anything.

Congrats! Pickup at court? Or NJSP?

Probably not much. Which is good. It’s just a speed bump. Take your real training with a certified NRA, IDPA, PTC or other recognized instructor.

They didn't tell me to do anything other than they are holding apps "in a box waiting for guidance from the state or something." If you haven't done so yet for your country, report it to strikeforce.

Yes, but not Middlesex, but Sussex. AFAIK the issue is the same. Judge refusing to sign for whatever reason.

Report it anyway. They said it’s better to overreport than underreport.

The prosecutor apparently sets guidelines and process for the PDs. They don’t handle day to day processing of apps.

https://www.anjrpc.org/page/ProgressOnCertainPermittingIssues In particular: 1. The Superintendent of State Police has approved a new online course of instruction to satisfy the training requirement of the new law. The new online course is expected to be imminently announced officially. It is not yet known whether this will ultimately be the only recognized training course, but at least there will be one compliance mechanism available while we advocate for others. 2. All County Prosecutor offices statewide have been instructed by the Attorney General that law enforcement agencies are to process all first-time purchaser applications as they have done previously (without the digital fingerprint and photograph), until such time as the new requirements are actually implemented. Looks like Callahan realized that bare compliance with a law that would likely be struck down anyway is the smartest move. An online course sort of like online traffic school should be no problem. We shouldn't need training for a right, but this isn't as onerous as it could be.

Guitar cases.

Members of Congress make 174k... more if they are committee chair or speaker.

Strikeforce is on it.

I’ve already notified strikeforce. Not involving strada yet. Waiting for word from ANJRPC’s counsel as they would know how best to handle this. AFAIK there are a few counties who are pulling this same tactic. Essex most notably.

I called Sussex court today and they told me that they received my application but that all applications are being held because they are waiting on guidance from the state. This is extremely odd given that Morris has issued permits and they are the same vicinage. So the theory about a judge refusing to sign seems plausible.

You can add Sussex to the list of counties that are just sitting on applications and not approving. I called the court today and they told me that they are “waiting on guidance or something” and haven’t approved any permits and that the applications are just sitting in a box. I have notified strikeforce and Dan Schmutter is on it.

Sussex

Sure. I've been looking to do that. No idea who offers it up here. If you could point me in that direction I would appreciate it. I am also going for my instructor certs so I can (among other things) qualify people for their permit to carry.

I wish Sussex would do that. I am past 60 days and no permit in sight. Just give it to me already
