OFCC Sues City of Cleveland Heights, Ohio The sign you see here is posted in Cleveland Heights Parks implying possession of a firearm is a crime. On Friday August 12th, 2011 Ohioans For Concealed Carry Filed a lawsuit against the City the City of Cleveland Heights. The litigation comes after many attempts to resolve concerns over laws that Cleveland Heights not only allowed to remain on their books, but also posted signs at their parks that continue to imply it is illegal to be armed. The City of Cleveland Heights has chosen to ignore our attempts at civil discourse. When individuals have contacted them representing themselves as residents of the City of Cleveland Heights their concerns apparently fell on deaf ears. When representatives of the organization have formally contacted the city's legal representation they've been laughed at and hung up on by the Law Director. It is this arrogance and refusal to work with Ohioans For Concealed Carry that has forced us to seek a remedy through the courts.
Our press release follows.

Canton PD Event Leads to New OFCC Legislation When officer Harless of the Canton, Ohio police department came upon a vehicle stopped in the roadway most of us were focused on getting restaurant carry legislation signed into law. What took place that evening has become an international viral video, calls for the resignation of the City Council president, and criminal charges against a man who is clearly heard trying to state that he has a license. Ohioans For Concealed Carry has not just raised thousands of dollars in a legal defense fund, but we've written legislation to resolve this matter that Representative Danny Bubp has stated he's going to introduce this fall

Ohio reaches CCW reciprocity agreement with North Dakota PDF Print E-mail

Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray has announced concealed carry reciprocity with the state of North Dakota!

North Dakota becomes the 20th state to have reciprocity with Ohio and the second new agreement announced this month.

Read the text of AG Cordray's announcement below.

 

 

I am pleased to inform you that my office has negotiated another agreement to extend the concealed carry privileges of licensed Ohioans who are travelling in other states.

Effective immediately, North Dakota is the 20th state to enter into concealed carry reciprocity with Ohio. Important agreements such as this help law-abiding, licensed citizens exercise their constitutionally protected rights in a number of different states across the country. Earlier this month, my office also negotiated a reciprocity agreement with the state of Nebraska. I support concealed carry, and this office will continue to search for new concealed carry reciprocity partners.

North Dakota has a two-tiered concealed weapons license system, in which applicants can either apply for a Class I or Class II license. Ohio will only recognize North Dakota's Class I license because its training and testing requirements more closely align with the license requirements of Ohio. These measures are necessary to ensure the safety of all Ohioans, and are required by law.

With this latest agreement, Ohio's concealed handgun licensees may now carry concealed firearms throughout the state of North Dakota; similarly, lawful North Dakota's licensees who hold a Class I license may now carry concealed firearms in Ohio.

In an attempt to simplify the agreement and make it more convenient to print and carry, the document is a single page.

The Attorney General's Office maintains concealed carry statistics online on the number of licenses issued each year in Ohio, as well as a listing of other states that have reciprocity agreements with Ohio, copies of license applications and a handbook on Ohio's concealed carry law.
