Please refer to the accompanying document entitled "Firearms Prohibiting Categories" for a complete list of the firearms prohibitions under the law. NOTE: The duration of the prohibitions vary. Also, federal law may impose additional and/or more restrictive prohibitions on firearms possession. Therefore, a person who is entitled to possess firearms under state law may nevertheless be prohibited from possessing firearms under federal law. For specific legal advice about the duration of a state prohibition, whether a state prohibition is still in effect, or whether federal law prohibits the possession of firearms, please consult with an attorney who is licensed to practice law in the State of California. The prohibition against firearms possession is effective immediately upon the occurrence of the prohibiting event (such as the date of the conviction, or the date when a protective order is issued) and requires the person who is prohibited from possessing firearms to immediately relinquish all firearm(s). This form helps the person who is prohibited from possessing firearms comply with the law by designating another person to relinquish, sell or dispose of the firearm(s) on behalf of the prohibited person. However, this form does not transfer ownership of the firearm(s), or confer any rights or privileges other than the right to temporarily possess firearms for the purpose of relinquishment, sale or disposal of those firearms. Both the owner of the firearm(s) and the person who is granted Power of Attorney for Firearms Relinquishment, Sale or Disposal are obligated to comply with state law regarding the sale and transfer of firearm(s), such as the requirement to transfer ownership of firearm(s) through a licensed firearms dealer. (See Pen. Code, §§ 26500-26590.) A person who is subject to a protective order (as defined in Family Code section 6218) is subject to special rules. Such a person must do both of the following: 1) Within 24 hours of being served with notice of the protective order, surrender all firearms to the control of local law enforcement officials, or sell the firearm(s) to a licensed gun dealer: but immediately surrender the firearm(s) to a law enforcement officer upon an officer's request. (Fam. Code, § 6389, subd. (c)(2).) 2) Within 48 hours of receiving the order, provide proof to the court that issued the order that all firearms have been relinquished. NOTE: A person who has Power of Attorney for Firearms Relinquishment, Sale or Disposal in a case where a protective order is issued must surrender the firearm(s) to the control of local law enforcement officials, or sell the firearm(s) to a licensed gun dealer on behalf of the gun owner within the times set forth above so that the gun owner is able to comply with the law. In other cases (that do not involve a protective order or a more specific court order), the person with Power of Attorney for Firearms Relinquishment, Sale or Disposal must do one of the following within 30 days: 1) Take the firearm(s) to a licensed firearms dealer so that it can be sold or transferred. 2) Surrender the firearm(s) to a California law enforce
