HB 302 Order On Petitioners Motion For Additional Time To File Petition {CIV_WRO_03_A}

ORDER ON PETITIONER’S MOTION FOR ADDITIONAL TIME TO FILE A PETITION FOR RELINQUISHMENT OF FIREARMS OR AMMUNITION PURSUANT TO 11 DEL. C. § 1448C. This form is used in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware for proceedings related to firearm relinquishment under 11 Del. C. § 1448C. Specifically, it addresses a petitioner’s request for additional time to file a formal Petition for Relinquishment of Firearms or Ammunition. The order arises in cases where the petitioner, usually law enforcement or a representative of the State, seeks more than the standard thirty-day period allowed by law to complete and file the necessary petition to have an individual relinquish their firearms or ammunition due to eligibility concerns, often tied to mental health, protective orders, or criminal matters. The court evaluates whether good cause has been shown to justify the extension. If granted, the petitioner is given an additional fifteen days from the date of the order to file the petition. If denied, the petitioner must file within the original thirty-day window or within seven days of the denial order, whichever is longer. www.FormsWorkflow.com
