No. Since you were not tried and acquitted, this is not double jeopardy.Is it me or does this sounds unconstitutional?

This doesn't sound like the whole story.. Why were the cops in your car in your driveway?? I understand you might not want to spill your business all over the internet, but it just seems odd to me..
He told the board before and we advised him to keep his mouth shut. Hopefully he will continue to heed that advice. Needless to say it would not have been a crime anywhere else.

If a cop wants to get in your car, with or without a warrant, he's going to do so, whether you "allow" him or not. Furthermore, if he has probable cause, he doesn't need a warrant.ok..I just can't see myself allowing a cop in my car without a warrant. I obviously can't see the whole picture here, but whatever happens, I hope a good lawyer is involved..

The fact that you didn't consent to the search simply means that if the judge determines he didn't have probable cause, then the evidence gets thrown out.
However, just because the evidence got thrown out doesn't mean that the chief can't decide you are not suitable for an LTC.
You missed my entire point..
And you missed mine.

Maybe. Maybe not. Presumably, the prosecutor will be making a different argument, and there will likely be a different judge. But even if the second case gets thrown out, that doesn't mean that the chief now has to reinstate his LTC.If your car was searched without either probable cause, a search warrant, or your consent, anything found during that search is inadmissible in court. So if it was inadmissible the first time, it'll still be inadmissible the second time.
Maybe, but the point is that He wasn't somewhere else, He was here.
I hate some of the foolish gun laws they have in this state. But, the law is the law and I obey them. I find it hard to feel sorry for someone who doesn't.

He was in the midst of a turbulent situation, tried to do the right thing, and made a bad decision. It is not my impression that leaving a gun in the car was his standard practice. It was an unusual situation. I do feel sorry for him.Maybe, but the point is that He wasn't somewhere else, He was here.

unfortunately i think you are screwed.
the law states that a loaded hand gun in a motor vehicle must be kept "under the direct control of the licensee." with no stated exemption as to the vehicle being on your property. so basically loaded gun in car and u out of car = broken law
Thats not necessarily true. It is perfectly legal to keep a firearm in the locked trunk of your vehicle.
