Carrying a Firearm Under Influence of Alcohol/Controlled Substance

Even if you have jumped through all the hoops to be a licensed gun carrier and are complying with the law in all other ways, you can still run afoul of the law by carrying a weapon while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance.

This misdemeanor is punishable by fines, jail time, and/or both pursuant to MCL 324.43558. Additionally, having this type of crime on your record may present a hang up when you attempt to secure other gun licenses or pass a background check.

If you want to protect your record and avoid many court hearings and costs, fines, and even possible jail time it is critical to find the right attorney as soon as possible.
