In Nebraska, who has the authority to issue Concealed Handgun Permits?

County Sheriffs
Nebraska State Patrol
Local Police Departments
The Department of Justice

The correct answer is: Nebraska State Patrol

The Nebraska State Patrol is the correct authority for issuing Concealed Handgun Permits in Nebraska. This state agency is responsible for overseeing the application process and ensuring that all requirements outlined in state law are met. The process includes background checks, fingerprinting, and a review of the applicant's eligibility based on criteria established by law. While county sheriffs, local police departments, and the Department of Justice may play roles in law enforcement or have certain regulatory functions, they do not have the authority to issue concealed handgun permits. Instead, the State Patrol acts as the centralized body for permit issuance, facilitating uniformity and adherence to state regulations across different jurisdictions within Nebraska.
