If its the only alcohol related offense you can carry. If you have had more than one depends on when the last conviction/treatment was.

So a minor consumption, and a minor possesion within 3 years is a no go?
So a minor consumption, and a minor possesion within 3 years is a no go?
Okay, so does that mean 30 days AFTER its expiration or only BEFORE?
I only ask because mine expired on 4/22/09.
That means after. It's a grace period for renewal. However, your permit is not good during the period between when it expired and when the renewal is filed. So if you get caught carrying on an expired permit, renewing it the next day doesn't make it all better. (Unless the judge is having a really good day.)

Er..no. It's 30 days BEFORE. Once it's expired, it's expired and you may not carry on it at all. If you re-apply within 30 days prior to the expiration of your current license, your current license is automatically extended past its expiration date until your new application arrives (or is rejected). In other words, as long as you're current when you re-apply, you can carry on your application receipt and existing license.
While the law says "within" and not "before", I do not believe it would be interpreted the way that you mean by either a prosecutor or a judge.
^ That man knows his stuff!!!!!
I screwed up and renewed 4 days after I expired and felt naked for almost 10 weeks..
Sorry if this is a repeat question....
I currently live in Marion County and have my LTCH. However, I'm going to be moving to Hendricks county (Brownsburg) next month. Who and which one do I need to contact to get my address changed??
