Interpretacion de estatuto federal de ofensor de carrera
5 de Febrero de 2008 Does the "civil rights restored" exemption contained in §921(a)(20) encompass, and therefore remove from ACCA's reach, state-court convictions that at no time deprived the offender of civil rights? We hold that the §921(a)(20) exemption provision does not cover the case of an offender who retained civil rights at all times, and whose legal status, postconviction, remained in all respects unaltered by any state dispensation.?
