I just read a statement where the AG conceded that 'all other requirements still apply', meaning they seem to be (immediately) recognizing the justifiable need is gone.
I haven't found a single place (don't do Facebook) talking about the steps to apply. Like, when doing the form in triplicate, can it be a photocopy or needs to be ink on all 3? Your references have to fill out the same form 3x, on the same form the other 2 references use? Stupid stuff like that, but don't want the form kicked back.

Aww shucks, I figure it's good to pass on information of interest to the NJ HTF and now that some of us carry, it's even more important to stay on top of things and not get jammed up. The more knowledgeable we all can be, the better for us all.

N.J. spike in gun carry permit requests 'significant,' but full scope unclear, A.G. says
New Jersey has seen a "significant" increase in applications for gun carry permits after a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling last June, but a full accounting of the flood of requests remains elusive and may not be revealed until at least this summer, the state Attorney General Matt Platkin told lawmakers this week. Authorities are setting up a real-time processing and tracking system for handgun carry permit applications in compliance with the decision and the demand for requests has been high, Platkin said during a state budget hearing Tuesday at the Statehouse in Trenton. "But I don't have the number yet for you," he said. "We will have a full sense of the scope of the number of applications hopefully by the summer when a digital platform is fully online." The state judiciary has said it received 11,298 applications between when the Supreme Court decision came down last June and when Gov. Phil Murphy signed a law in December that sought to comply with the high court's ruling while keeping in place as many limits as possible. A spokeswoman for the judiciary said Wednesday the court system no longer tracks carry permits. The new law removed a provision under the old law that put the decision over who gets a permit in the hands of a judge. Since then, State Police, who handle applications in towns they patrol and collect data from local departments, reported 5,730 carry permits issued, according to data provided by the division to lawmakers. It's unclear if there is any overlap in those two figures, and authorities say they currently have no way of counting permits statewide. "The exact number is unknown as all municipalities do not send approved permit applications to (State Police) to be placed in the Firearms Licensing System," Platkin's office wrote in the update to lawmakers. New Jersey for decades had some of the nation's most stringent carry restrictions, which made it nearly impossible to legally carry handguns. You previously had to prove a "justifiable need" to get a carry permit in New Jersey a hurdle few but retired law enforcement and people facing credible threats could overcome. The Supreme Court ruling, commonly known as the Bruen decision, upended that system. The central provisions of the law Murphy signed in December including tight restrictions on where permit-holders can carry in New Jersey is on hold pending a federal lawsuit from gun rights groups. Scott Bach, the head of the New Jersey Association of Rifle and Pistol Clubs, said the state has seen "an influx of permit applications" to police departments since the Bruen decision. Previously, Bach said, few of his members qualified for handgun carry permits. But the Bruen decision, which threw out New York's similarly restrictive carry law, flipped the legal calculation to allow most people aside from convicted felons and those with documented mental health issues from carrying guns in public. "You're looking at decades of pent-up demand and suddenly there's a flood of applications," Bach said. The Attorney General's Office has struggled in recent years to keep up with its obligations to make statistics on guns, crimes and police oversight public. The agency is already running months and even years behind on the release of other data, from gun permits to oversight reports and basic crime statistics. For example, the report detailing major discipline at police departments is from 2021. The last uniform crime report an annual accounting of every serious offense in the state uses data from 2020. Local police handle most gun carry permit applications, though the State Police processes them for the dozens of towns they patrol. Bach, whose organization has a "strike force" that helps members resolve permit issues, said processing time is all over the map. "There are towns that sit on permits for six months and there are towns that issue carry permits in two weeks," he said. Overall, Bach added, "They're struggling to meet demand."

Supplement to Directive #14-22 Criminal Gun Permit Procedures Requests to Amend Permits to Carry
On December 22, 2022, Governor Murphy signed A-4769 into law (L. 2022, c. 131), amending a number of New Jersey firearms statutes in response to the United States Supreme Court's decision in N.Y. State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, 142 S. Ct. 2111 (2022). The legislation, in part, removed the courts from the initial decision-making process for applications for permits to carry handguns. Directive # 14- 22 ("Criminal - Gun Permit Procedures") was promulgated in conjunction with enactment of the new law to establish uniformity in the court's handling of appeals from law enforcement's denial of firearms purchaser identification cards, permits to purchase handguns, and permits to carry handguns. This Supplement to Directive # 14- 22 addresses the practice of the court amending permits to carry handguns and orders issuing permits to carry. Effective immediately, courts will no longer issue amended carry permits or orders to issue amended carry permits other than to correct issuance errors ( e.g., typographical errors, misprints). As of December 22, 2022, law enforcement alone receives, investigates, and makes decisions on all new requests regarding permit to carry applications. To that end, applicants requesting to add one or more handguns to a permit to carry that previously was issued by the courts should be directed instead to apply for a new permit through their local police agency. Applicants requesting to remove any restriction from a permit previously issued by the courts may choose to appeal to a higher court. Questions or comments may be directed to Criminal Practice Division by email to the AOC Criminal Practice Division at [email protected] or by phone 609-815-2900,x55300 Document Date: April 3, 2023 Publish Date: April 10, 2023 View Quote njcourts.gov Fwiw some PD's are reissuing permits and removing court restrictions, not all PD's but some. So you may try to talk to your local PD to see if they'll make you re-apply or simply ask you for a photo so they can issue you a new unrestricted permit. |

Some things to consider if you already haven't.
If you ever need to use your gun, what will happen afterwards? Things to consider such as social media posts, decisions you make when encountering or avoiding certain situations, did you escalate or de-escalate? Avoiding confrontations or removing yourself from the situation is always the better option if available. View Quote ARMY Sergeant Carrying convicted of MURDER: If you Carry, should YOU Worry? |

Courts Fed-up with Carry Permits
"Effective immediately, courts will no longer issue amended carry permits or orders to issue amended carry permits other than to correct issuance errors (e.g., Page 3 of 7 typographical errors, misprints)." Get a load of that. You no longer have recourse to the courts. Your due process rights on a document issued by a judge no less. You no longer can go to the court to get it fixed, to get it amended, to get it to conform to what the law and the Constitution so require. The courts have stopped it dead in its tracks here with this directive. You no longer can seek redress in the courts. Your right to recourse in the courts, a fundamental right of an American citizen, is now denied when it comes to carry permits. View Quote Tell me what other issues do the courts stop you from seeking redress? When it's actually something even done by the court, and you can't go back? Other than for typographical errors, of course. Well, the good news is, they're out of it. They're no longer the issuing authorities. They never should have been. It just shows you how many licensees are out there that must have been trying to get these things fixed, and they just couldn't take it. Because you have so many other important things to do, you know, other than worry about our Second Amendment rights here anymore. View Quote Gun Lawyer #129 |

Ignorance of the law Is a defense
I don't know how many of you are aware of this, but ignorance of the law in New Jersey is a defense. That's right. You've heard your whole life; ignorance of the law is no defense or ignorance of the law is no excuse. Well, in New Jersey, it actually is an excuse. It's an actual defense in New Jersey, but it's not simply your sitting there and saying, I didn't know that. That isn't how it works. View Quote Gun Lawyer podcast #130 |

We Are Watching History Being Made
While New Jerseyans bemoan the convoluted state of affairs with regards to gun regulation in the state, we would do well to remember that we are living through history that is setting a bulwark of strong defenses and precedent supporting the Second Amendment for decades to come. View Quote Here in New Jersey as we fight A4769 (the "carry-killer" bill signed by Governor Murphy last year) and await Judge Bumb's decision on a preliminary injunction, we can clearly see that this case is on a trajectory towards the Supreme Court. The State will surely appeal what is likely to be a decision that supports the Constitution and previous legal precedent protecting the Second Amendment. And that case will eventually land in the laps of a Supreme Court that ruled, just less than a year ago, firmly in favor of an unabridged Second Amendment, based on history and tradition.

Evan Nappen's podcast:
New Jersey's carry law, if you apply for a carry permit, it says that the police have 90 days to approve or deny it. If they don't approve it within 90 days, they could try to get an extension of another 30 days. So, that puts it at a max of 120 days. But at that point, folks, under the carry law, it is deemed approved. If that deadline for them to make their decision passes, then it's automatically deemed approved and that means it has to be granted. Whereas there is no deemed approved for a Firearm Purchaser ID Card or a Pistol Purchase Permit. View Quote Evan Nappen 15:06 So, if any of you are thinking about applying and you're in towns that maybe have a reputation for being slow or just these delays, then put into your package getting your carry and your Firearms ID Card or Pistol Purchase Permit all at the same time. Because then you get the benefit of the deadline in the carry permit law. It's kind of amazing to even say these things these days considering I've been doing this gun law practice for over 35 years, and suddenly the getting of a carry license gives you an advantage in getting licenses issued timely, which is just kind of hilarious, but there it is. Truth is stranger than fiction. When we come back, I have some more really interesting questions to share with you. See you in a few. View Quote Gun Lawyer #132 |
