What Rights Can Be Restored After a Felony Conviction?
Arizona law allows individuals with felony convictions to request the restoration of key civil rights, including:
- The right to vote
- The ability to serve on a jury
- The right to hold public office
- The right to legally own or possess a firearm
For first-time, non-violent offenses, some rights may automatically return once your sentence is complete. However, if you have multiple convictions—or want to restore your gun rights—you’ll need to file a formal petition.
Restoring your rights is more than a legal step. It’s about regaining independence, dignity, and a sense of belonging in your community.
Gun Rights Restoration in Arizona: What to Know
Restoring your firearm rights in Arizona depends on the type of offense and how much time has passed. Here’s a general breakdown:
- You may apply for restoration two years after completing your sentence for many felonies.
- More serious offenses under A.R.S. §13‑706 require a 10-year waiting period.
- Convictions for dangerous offenses under A.R.S. §13‑704 may not qualify.
- Setting aside a conviction does not automatically restore firearm rights.
- Even after Arizona restores your rights, federal restrictions may still apply.
These laws can be complex—but an experienced attorney can help you navigate both state and federal requirements.
