New Firearm Rules: 90-Day Approval Limit and Mandatory Appeal Rights.
This law mandates that the ATF must process firearm transfer and registration applications within 90 days. If the agency fails to meet this deadline, the application is automatically approved. Furthermore, individuals denied a firearm purchase gain a formal right to appeal the decision, including reimbursement for attorney fees if the appeal is successful.
Key points
ATF must approve or deny firearm transfer or manufacturing applications within 90 calendar days; failure to act results in automatic approval.
Individuals denied a firearm purchase based on a background check (NICS) gain a formal administrative appeal process.
Successful appellants are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable and necessary attorney fees incurred during the appeal.
