Legba, if the 45 days pass without you receiving the license the relief available to you would be by filing a writ of mandamus against the sheriff. This obviously has the drawbacks of:
1) Costing you $250 or so in filing fees
2) Alienating said sheriff, when if fact the delay may be because of the s-l-o-w service sometimes being given by BCI. which by the way is in London Ohio.
A very few people have gone that route according the the OFCC forum. Oneapplicant in Greene County was above 80 days when his license was finally issued. He didn't file the mandamus writ but went through OFCC and his state legislator to get some help as memory serves.
The long delays from BCI are supposedly because of all the background checks they have lately started doing for just about anybody that works in daycare and other kid-related jobs. I find this a flimsy excuse at best but I'm not sure we CC applicants can do much about it, since there is virtually no penalty clause when the licenses aren't issued within the legal time limits.
