Can I apply (and be granted) a Michigan Concealed Weapon Permit if...?

I have a convicted felon living in my home? The felon would be a family member & the crime was not a violent crime and the family member completed all probation and paid all fines as required by the court and has kept their nose clean. Actually, the family member did NOT even commit a crime but was with friends that did so my felon was also charged because the crimes was permitted in a tourist town that depends on the money tourists spend. My felon was basically made an example of and was felon was just 18 at the time of the charge. If my felon had money for an attorney, I am 100% positive my felon would not have a felony conviction today. Those damn court appointed attorney's truly are working for the court and NOT the person being charged.

Update:

My felon was made an example by the charge by the court. I truly believe the court wanted people to know that if someone commits a crime & you were not involved, that you have an obligation to rat out the crime committers or you WILL also be charged.

Update 2:

Okay, y'all ARE wrong. I just spoke with the Chief Prosecutor of my county and he is also on the Gun Board in my county. I was told we CAN actually own guns and have a CCW with a felon in the home as long as the guns are locked up when not on our bodies and that the guns could NOT be locked up in the felons bedroom. I was also told that my felon CAN also possibly own a gun in the future providing his conviction does not fall under a certain code and so many years after the conviction.

    just make sure that he does not have access to the weapon at any point. If you leave the gun out and he gets to it then yes you can be in trouble as well. It sounds like you already have the gun. What i would do is get i cant think of the brand name but these safes' are available at some ranges and cabela's and gander mountain. They are the ones that use your finger print to open it up. That way when you do go infront of the panel to either get approved or denied your CCW permit you can tell them that you have this specific safe and when you dont have the gun on you it will be locked up and he will not have access to it.

    Source(s): easy with the y'all are wrong. basically i was right with the exception that the gun can not be stored in the bedroom.

    Tha above answer is wrong !

    A convicted felon may NOT be in a house , or vehicle containing a firearm ......... PERIOD !! It makes NO difference WHY he`s a felon !! An felon is a felon !!

    It also makes NO difference that the gun is locked up !!

    This is a FEDERAL law , and not a State law ! If your felon is caught in your house while there`s a firearm in it ........ it`s an automatic 10 year prison sentence for him ! I kid you NOT !!

    It could also put you in a whole SHlTLOAD of legal trouble too !!
