In particular:
https://nebraskalegislature.gov/laws/statutes.php?statute=69-2409.01
To quote a piece: "To ensure the accuracy of the data base, any information maintained or disclosed under this subsection shall be updated, corrected, modified, or removed, as appropriate, and as soon as practicable, from any data base that the state or federal government maintains and makes available to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. The procedures for furnishing the information shall guarantee that no information is released beyond what is necessary for purposes of this section."
This is about the NICS database, if I am understanding DHHS is supposed to remove the record from NICS after an order is granted removing the disability?
I was recently denied a in a NICS check due to a mental health preclusion, which is the exact one I had removed in March of 2016 and I have an order stating so from the very board that granted it in Oct of 2000. It IS the only one I have ever had I know for a fact.
Im being told by DHSS (who has my court order removing it) that I need to contact the FBI and have them remove it. The FBI told me I have to go to ATF. ATF told me I have to submit an appeal to the NICS denial and they are 2+years backed up. Nebraska only uses NICS for firearms purchase permits not individual sales so there is not a Form 4473 which I guess has whatever reference numbers they need.
Anyone know how its supposed to be removed/updated?
