POLICE OFFICER HAS FOID CARD REINSTATED
After being admitted to a mental facility, a police officer had his FOID card revoked by the Illinois State Police pursuant to the Illinois Firearm Owner's Identification Act. We petitioned the Board for a hearing seeking to rescind the revocation. Since the FOID card was revoked, the officer was stripped of his police powers and his pay. At the hearing, we were able to prove that the officer was entitled to an immediate reinstatement of his FOID card. He was returned to duty with full pay. 2014 J 004
