be AT print by the end of the day" will not necessarily BE printed
Yes, but it went to print on the 5th, a full 3 days later... Yes, I know some of you are having worse problems. My suggestion is to call Anne in KCSO records, and ask where your application is. At the same time call the DOL, and explain that according to the terms of RCW 9.41.170 the background check will be completed within 30 days. To comply with the terms of the injunction the FBI background check is irrelevant,
Department of Licensing shall:
a. promptly resume processing applications for alien firearm licenses;
b. issue alien firearms licenses to otherwise qualified applicants notwithstanding
the Department’s or any local law enforcement agency’s inability to perform or
complete a background and/or fingerprint check required by RCW § 9.41.170.
c. upon application, renew or issue alien firearm licenses to Plaintiffs Adrian J.
Coombes, Philip Grady, and such other lawful permanent resident aliens, including
members of Plaintiffs NRA and SAF, who may apply pursuant to RCW § 9.41.170 if they are otherwise qualified for licensure.
That they should be fulfilling the timescales laid out in the RCW, with or without background information. If they complain about this, then let them have it, Washington State is unconstitutionally restricting your 2nd Amendment rights as applied through the 14th amendment (equal protection), and confirmed in the Civil Rights Act for equal protection under law.
You could explain that given the current Federal court injunction, and circumstances around the RCW, and the Heller decision, that what you are doing is more or less being polite. I doubt that enforcement of the RCW for any LPR would hold up in court. I'm not recommending it, but it would be a damn fast way for someone to blow the lid off this stupid situation (not me, I'm going through Naturalization, and wouldn't want to jeopardize that at this point).
I've attached the initial injunction filing, so you can check it out for yourselves, it's already passed 5 legal tests including a "likely to succeed" test.
