It's totally me. I called the status line today, and was told I was being sent a denial letter. Of course I asked why, and she said it was something about an arrest I had in 1998. The arrest was for Possession of Drug Paraphanalia (Class A Misdemeanor)
I went to the Circuit Clerk's, and found that charge was dismissed. I don't know what to do now. I am on hold AGAIN with ISP to see what I need to do to get this satisfied.
Also, I have an appt with an attorney tomorrow to see if I can get it expunged quicker than ISP will be to "investigate".
I can't believe it, I am in shock. A punk college kid getting caught with some weed 13 years ago means I am not worthy of holding a FOID card.
