I got my CPL last year. I OC sometimes and CC others, and I wanted to be able to carry loaded in my car so I got one. Shortly after that I got my sidearm (Springfield XD) and started carrying every day, without exception. Now, I've got a couple friends and my mother interested in carrying and they all want CPLs.
Here's the question for you guys: what recourse do you have, or who do you talk to, if the state drags their feet in the issuing of yours CPL. Assume the applicant meets all the requirements, as I know both my friends and my mother do. Can you get some bureaucrats fined? Can/should you sue?
The reason I ask is because my mother applied for her CPL last month. She was skeptical that they would issue it to her in a timely manner (bad experiences with bureaucrats in the past) and we are approaching the 30 day mark, so she called to check on the status with King County. They found her application and said it could take 6-8 weeks. But here's the real interesting part: the lady she spoke with said the computer showed that they received her app on the 26th of May and that it would be "complete" by the 26th of June. When asked if that meant it would be in the mail by the 26th of June the lady said that date doesn't really mean anything, that it could still take a few more weeks. This makes my wonder if they are marking the date in the computer to appear "on paper" as having complied with RCW 9.41.070. I digress.
So, if they do run over their time and start jacking her around, anyone know where she can go? Anyone run into this problem before?
Thanks guys!
