Hi all. First post and let me say I truly appreciate all the info on this site.
I have a single record listed with the state for an incident that occurred during my divorce a few years ago. I was under a domestic no contact order (not a full blown district court restraining order) and made a dumb phone call. I was arrested and charged with DISORDERLY CONDUCT/DOMESTIC (as listed on the documents) and plead nolo at the recommendation of my lawyer. Let's face it, I was dumb enough to call her knowing full well it could bite me. Since then, all orders were dropped and everyone is friendly again. There is no mention or assertion of physical abuse or threats anywhere in the case. Am I likely to get denied for a firearms purchase? Live in RI if that makes any difference.
TIA
