Has anyone run across a published or unpublished Court of Appeals Decision concerning hunter safety classes used as proof of competency.
I'm just dotting my I's.
After checking, the Circuit Court Judge that handles the permits for Lunenburg, Mecklinburg and Nottoway, is not allowing Hunter Safety classes to be used
Shouldn't matter what the judge says. The law is the law and is very clear as to what counts for proof of competency.
The judge either signs them or doesn't. It's always easier to show him the error than try to force them. Quicker too.
The problem is solved now.
Those are always wonderful words, here.
And they're spoken quite often.
Gotta love an educated, active citizenry.
I can't take much if any credit for straightening it out. With the exception of some dog hunters from Mecklinburg, I don't thing there i an arrogant or otherwise disagreeable person down there.
It was a simple misunderstanding between the Deputy Clerks and the Judge. The misunderstanding was that not all people who had hunting licenses had a Hunter Safety Course. Now every man, woman and child down there has a hunting license (except me:uhoh
so the Deputy Clerks thought there had to be something that indicated range time, to go with it. There is something....the hunter safety certificate.
With the aforementioned exception, everyone down there is pretty agreeable, so if someone in the Clerks office says "that won't do" they just go along with it.
It took me less than 20 minutes to get everything on track and that included some gossip time with the Clerk.
The Judge knew the law and wasn't aware of the issue.
The CC Clerk knew the law but was a little unclear about the license/certificate and had no problem with it.
The Deputy Clerk didn't know the law and just thought she was doing what was required.
There just weren't any bad guys, just a miscommunication.
