Who may petition the court to suspend a firearm license in Massachusetts?

  1. Family members only

  2. Law enforcement officers only

  3. Both family members and law enforcement officers

  4. Only the individual who is the subject of the license

The correct answer is: Both family members and law enforcement officers

Anyone who has reason to believe that the firearm licensee poses a risk to themselves or others can petition the court to suspend the license. This can include family members and law enforcement officers, as well as others who may have information about the licensee's behavior. Option A is incorrect because it implies that only family members have the right to petition. Option B is incorrect because it excludes family members from the right to petition. Option D is incorrect because it limits the right to petition to only the individual who is the subject of the license, but anyone can file a petition. Thus, the correct answer is C, as it encompasses all parties who may have knowledge of a potential risk involving the firearm licensee.
