Which of the following convictions disqualifies an individual from obtaining a Wisconsin CCW permit?

A misdemeanor conviction for jaywalking
A felony conviction
A parking ticket
A conviction for not paying child support

The correct answer is: A felony conviction

A felony conviction disqualifies an individual from obtaining a Wisconsin CCW permit because firearms regulations, including those for concealed carry, are particularly stringent regarding felony offenses. In Wisconsin, individuals who have been convicted of a felony are prohibited from possessing firearms unless they have had their rights restored. This reflects a broader legal principle aimed at ensuring that individuals with serious criminal backgrounds do not have access to firearms, which is linked to public safety concerns. In contrast, misdemeanor offenses such as jaywalking typically do not have the same implications for firearm ownership and do not affect CCW eligibility. Similarly, minor infractions like parking tickets or non-criminal convictions related to child support do not carry the same legal restrictions pertaining to firearms and do not result in disqualification from obtaining a concealed carry permit.
