I have been looking through the VA statutes for certain code barring the purchase of a firearm by a person with pending charges and cannot find any legislation expressly prohibiting such.
I am aware that a convicted felon is not permitted to purchase a firearm. Unsure about a person with pending felony charges. However, what I am most interested, at this point, is whether a person with pending traffic misdemeanor charges is prohibited from purchasing a firearm. It is this particular scenerio that I am unable to locate statutes for.
So, I am wondering if anyone out there would know, under these circumstances, if a firearm purchase is prohibited.
