Question: What civil rights and employment rights would I lose if convicted of a felony?
Answer: Arizona Law (ARS 13-904) states what civil and employment rights you lose. These include:
1. The right to vote.
2. The right to hold public office of trust or profit.
3. The right to serve as a juror.
4. The right to possess a gun or firearm.
A person may be denied employment by the state or any of its agencies or may be denied a license, permit or certificate to engage in an occupation (such as a Realtor, hair stylist, accountant, contractor, landscaper, etc.) if the felony has a reasonable relationship to the license, permit or certificate.
