ok here is the deal.  I have a soldier who has his CHL.  He went into a daycare and told them he was a CID agent(but he is really a tanker). The Owner did not know what to do, so she called the police.  And they arrested him.  When i talked with the officer, he said they were arresting he with a CLass A mis.     My question is, will he lose his CHL with a class A mis. if he is found gulity?


They have him right now for impersonating a federal officer and a hand gunn violation.

Lawyer time!

Might need a couple... One for state violations and another for federal.

Will he lose his CHL? Is impersonating a federal officer a felony? If yes, then it will be suspended upon being charged and revoked forever upon conviction.

Being charged with a class A misdemeanor is cause for suspension of a TX CHL.
From Texas Statutes:


§ 411.187.  SUSPENSION OF LICENSE.  (a)  A license may be
suspended under this section if the license holder:
(1)  is charged with the commission of a Class A or
Class B misdemeanor or an offense under Section 42.01, Penal Code,
or of a felony under an information or indictment;
(2)  fails to display a license as required by Section
411.205;            
(3)  fails to notify the department of a change of
address or name as required by Section 411.181;
(4)  carries a concealed handgun[0] under the authority of
this subchapter of a different category than the license holder is
licensed to carry;
(5)  fails to return a previously issued license after
a license is modified as required by Section 411.184(d);
(6)  commits an act of family violence and is the
subject of an active protective order rendered under Title 4,
Family Code;  or
(7)  is arrested for an offense involving family
violence or an offense under Section 42.072, Penal Code, and is the
subject of an order for emergency protection issued under Article
17.292, Code of Criminal Procedure.
(b)  If a peace officer believes a reason listed in
Subsection (a) to suspend a license exists, the officer shall
prepare an affidavit on a form provided by the department stating
the reason for the suspension of the license and giving the
department all of the information available to the officer at the
time of the preparation of the form.  The officer shall attach the
officer's reports relating to the license holder to the form and
send the form and the attachments to the appropriate division of the
department at its Austin headquarters not later than the fifth
working day after the date the form is prepared.  The officer shall
send a copy of the form and the attachments to the license holder.  
If the license holder has not surrendered the license or the license
was not seized as evidence, the license holder shall surrender the
license to the appropriate division of the department not later
than the 10th day after the date the license holder receives the
notice of suspension from the department unless the license holder
requests a hearing from the department.  The license holder may
request that the justice court in the justice court precinct in
which the license holder resides review the suspension as provided
by Section 411.180.  If a request is made for the justice court to
review the suspension and hold a hearing, the license holder shall
surrender the license on the date an order of suspension is entered
by the justice court.
(c)  A license may be suspended under this section:                            
(1)  for 30 days, if the person's license is subject to
suspension for a reason listed in Subsection (a)(3), (4), or (5),
except as provided by Subdivision (3);
(2)  for 90 days, if the person's license is subject to
suspension for a reason listed in Subsection (a)(2), except as
provided by Subdivision (3);
(3)  for not less than one year and not more than three
years if the person's license is subject to suspension for a reason
listed in Subsection (a), other than the reason listed in
Subsection (a)(1), and the person's license has been previously
suspended for the same reason;
(4)  until dismissal of the charges if the person's
license is subject to suspension for the reason listed in
Subsection (a)(1);  or
(5)  for the duration of or the period specified by:                          
(A)  the protective order issued under Title 4,
Family Code, if the person's license is subject to suspension for
the reason listed in Subsection (a)(6);  or
(B)  the order for emergency protection issued
under Article 17.292, Code of Criminal Procedure, if the person's
license is subject to suspension for the reason listed in
Subsection (a)(7).

Anyone that stupid doesn't need a CHL anyway.

Quoted: Anyone that stupid doesn't need a CHL anyway.

sadly i agree

Federal and state charges, both felony and misdemeanor.  The Feds MIGHT let the army charge him under UCMJ instead. He's toast on the state charges.


He's going to lose more than his CHL,  He's going to lose ALL his guns, about 10 years of his life, and a whole lot of money.

WTH was he doing in a daycare?  If this is some sort of divorce/custody nonsense he may face additional charges.  

If he has a Texas CHL, what was the state Class A Misdemeanor?
