Sections 12031 and 25850(a) of the California Penal Code prohibit carrying loaded guns on your person or vehicle. When developing a case against you, the prosecution must establish beyond a reasonable doubt that:
Carrying a loaded handgun in public without aggravating circumstances is a misdemeanor. Punishable by a maximum of one year in prison and a $1,000 fine. The offense may be prosecuted as either a misdemeanor or felony, with a possible $1,000 fine and up to 3 years in prison as penalties. Carrying a loaded firearm is illegal when:
It is considered a crime to carry a loaded firearm, punishable by up to 3 years in jail and a $10,000 fine under the following conditions:
It violates California Penal Code 25400PC to carry a concealed weapon (CCW) on your person or in a car. As a misdemeanor, the offense carries a maximum prison sentence of one year. If convicted of a felony, the maximum sentence is 3 years in county jail.
Specific actions constitute a violation of Penal Code 25400 PC, "carrying a concealed firearm," including:
The following are forbidden activities under state law:
While the majority of residents of California are permitted to own firearms, some types of weapons are illegal in the state. Only authorized individuals can own assault rifles and other firearms in California Penal Code 30600 PC.
Uzis, AK-series rifles, and other weapons are among these. Without a permit, owners of these weapons face a prison sentence of 1-3 years.
Unlicensed gun production, distribution, importation, lending, and sale are all felonies with a 4–8 year prison term. A year is added to the sentence if these weapons are sold or given to minors.
Section 417 of the California Penal Code governs the brandishing of a weapon. This law bans drawing or displaying a dangerous weapon in an intimidating or threatening way to another person, except in self-defense or unlawfully using such a weapon during any fight or quarrel.
Importantly, it is not necessary that you genuinely meant to injure the claimed victim or that they ever noticed your weapon.
The legal offense of brandishing a weapon is when a gun is drawn, displayed, or used in a hostile, furious, or threatening manner. What is a "rude, hostile, or threatening manner"? In defending our clients against allegations of displaying a firearm, our criminal defense attorneys in Los Angeles usually rely on this crucial factor.
You are not guilty of brandishing a weapon if you only display a new firearm or show a gun to another individual. Under California Law, however, using a dangerous weapon during an argument or fight with another person is brandishing a weapon.
Section 245(a)(2) of the California Penal Code governs charges of assault with a firearm. If you get accused of using a gun to commit an assault crime, the prosecutor will likely pursue another form of assault charge against you.
Like assault with a deadly weapon as defined by California Penal Code Section 245(a)(1), the primary distinction is that the alleged attack involves a "deadly weapon" other than a firearm and using the gun with enough force to be likely to result in serious injury.
If you are found guilty, you may face severe legal penalties limiting your chances for a job and other opportunities for years.
Don't worry! Olen Firm Criminal Defense Lawyers have successfully defended many clients charged with assault weapons.
