It clearly shows in this attachment that the case was "Disposed by DISM" and the "Judgement Set-Aside".

411.171(4)(C) states the following:

(4) “Convicted” means an adjudication of guilt or, except as provided in
Section 411.1711, an order of deferred adjudication entered against a
person by a court of competent jurisdiction whether or not the imposition of
the sentence is subsequently probated and the person is discharged from
community supervision. The term does not include an adjudication of guilt or
an order of deferred adjudication that has been subsequently:
(A) expunged;
(B) pardoned under the authority of a state or federal official; or
(C) otherwise vacated, set aside, annulled, invalidated, voided, or sealed
under any state or federal law.

Do you mind referencing the sections that state this in LTC-16?

411.1711 lists the permanent disqualifiers, and 411.171(1) states that it must be a felony offense. The OP stated that his is a Class A Misdemeanor, so none of 411.1711 applies to him at all.

Thank you very much! This was my understanding as well. As long as the charge was set-aside and dismissed then it should not be a disqualifier.

AJSully, I appreciate it!

For the record, it was in Texas (Dallas). That is the reason i quoted the Texas LTC-16 gun laws.

I have already filed my application, done my fingerprints, and was scheduled to take my LTC-100 class Monday. Am I eligible in the situation above? It looks like section C (highlighted) may have been added Sep 1, 2009. To me, it seems like I'm perfectly eligible being that my case was "set-aside" and dismissed.

Help!
The way I read it you are fine, although they may contact you to provide details of disposition.

That's the way I read it as well.. called DPS directly and she said she wasn't part of the eligibility department and couldn't answer my question. Was hoping someone had better insight here.

I have gone ahead and downloaded both the Disposition document and the Order of Dismissal so that I can upload.

Anyone else with some advice/info on the topic would be highly appreciated!
