I believe the term used is "referred for study""buried in committee"
That bastion of gun rights, Arizona specifically considers "offenses for which a pardon has been granted" as disqualifiers for a LTC in that state proving that it's not just something in the regional water supply.Without a Finding"... meaning not proven guilty.

In MA it is "considered" bu LE to be a "guilty" equivalent and treated as such by most chiefs. Doesn't matter if it was for stealing a candy bar or OUI, same deal.
This is a guilty plea in all but name.
In Massachusetts it means you have agreed to make such an admission as one of the conditions for receiving a continuance without a finding.but in plain English admitting that the prosecution has sufficient facts to warrant a finding of guilty simply means that there's no reason to bother moving for dismissal of all charges for lack of evidence before putting on a defense.
It's not considered a pardon or guilty plea under the law. I cite the example of AZ considering a pardoned offense as a disqualifying criminal record as a second example of a case where a state government has decided that the lack of a conviction (as the conviction no longer exists once a pardon has been issued) will not prevent the alleged offense from being used as the basis to deny a license. I'm not certain that's still the case in AZ, however, so this info may not be currently accurate.I'm confused. I honestly am somewhat lost in this legal stuff... but I didn't know a CWOF was considered a pardon or anything related to a guilty plee. Is this for ALL CWOF? Even OUI?
