Prohibits certain individuals from possessing a firearm due to domestic violence
This bill updates Missouri's laws regarding firearm possession for individuals subject to domestic violence protection orders by repealing and replacing several existing statutes. It directly affects people who have been issued full or ex parte orders of protection due to domestic violence, stalking, or sexual assault. The key provision prohibits these individuals from possessing firearms while the protection order is in effect, with the order also allowing courts to include additional safety terms like no-contact rules and restrictions on entering shared living spaces. The legislation also expands what courts can order in protection cases, including child custody, visitation, support payments, counseling requirements, and reimbursement for shelter services.
