Misdemeanors
Misdemeanors in Oklahoma cover a range of less serious crimes that can still carry penalties such as fines, probation, or jail time. These offenses include charges like certain domestic violence misdemeanors, which also impact firearm possession rights under both state and federal law. For example, a protective order can temporarily bar firearm ownership, and misdemeanor domestic violence convictions prohibit firearm possession under federal law, 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(9). Understanding these nuances is critical when facing misdemeanor charges. For tailored advice, consider consulting a Wagoner attorney familiar with local laws.
