Can an individual under a restraining order for domestic violence possess a firearm in Mississippi?

Yes, but not while the order is in effect
No, it is prohibited
Yes, without restrictions
Yes, but only after a hearing

The correct answer is: No, it is prohibited

An individual under a restraining order for domestic violence cannot possess a firearm in Mississippi. This is because possession of a firearm is prohibited for individuals in this situation, as they are deemed to be a threat to others and potentially dangerous. Option A is incorrect because possession is not allowed at any point during the restraining order. Option C is incorrect because even though it is possible for individuals to possess a firearm in Mississippi without restrictions, this is not the case for those under a restraining order for domestic violence. Option D is incorrect because even though a hearing may be required for other situations, it does not override the restriction on firearm possession while under a restraining order for domestic violence.
