Youll have to be more specific. What 'rights' you are referring to? What are the ages of the children? Who has primary custody of them while you are (presumably) in prison?

Section 8 housing but felony friendly for rent?

Okay, we're talking about two different issues: the section 8 housing program, and a felony conviction. Each housing authority has its own rules regarding felony convictions for those who want to apply for the program. Generally, many of the housing authorities will prohibit anyone convicted of a felony of less than five years from receiving a voucher. Federal regulations prohibit those convicted of certain types of felonies from ever receiving a voucher or public housing. These felonies include sex offenses for which a person must register in his state as a sex offender; drug trafficking offenses; violent offenses such as robbery, aggravated battery, etc.; and fraud involving public assistance.


Will a Felon get section 8 housing in KY?

It all depends on what type of felony that person is convicted of. If the person must register in his state as a sex offender, the felony is of violent or drug nature, or the felony involves public assistance fraud, then by federal regulations the Housing Authority cannot accept this person into the voucher program. And the Housing Authority may have its own rules of whom they may exclude as convicted felons from their programs. Most often than not they include felonies of any kind of less than 5-7 years from the date of release from incarceration or supervision, whichever later occurred.

Can a convicted felon in Georgia get a concealed carry permit after rights are restored?

If you're expecting to get gun rights back after a felony conviction, don't hold your breath. In some shall-issue states, it is possible for a convicted felon to get a concealed carry permit. However, it's still a felony for them to own, possess, or be in a situation where they have access to firearms, and the CCW doesn't negate that.


How do you get your gun rights back in state of Colorado?

Well, it all depends on your situation. If you've convicted of something which is a felony only at state level, and NOT a federal felony, it MIGHT be possible to have your gun rights restored. You need the services of a lawyer, and there is no guarantee. If your felony conviction was a federal felony, your chances are more or less nil. If you've been convicted of a crime of domestic violence or something drug related - whether felony or misdemeanor - that further reduces your chances of being able to have your gun rights restored. Again, you need the services of a lawyer here, who can be privy to the exact details of your situation, and can make a determination as to the feasibility of trying to have your gun rights restored.
