Most people seem to agree that there may be a time when someone needs a "vacation" from their guns.
IMO, for this to happen fairly, the following would need to occur.
1). Due process including an appearance before a judge & representation by an attorney.
2). Any such order by the court should be for a finite time period not to exceed a reasonable duration (6 months)
3). A formal appeal process.
4). A decision based on a verifiable threat to the accuser eg. witnessed threats made.
It is important that the accused not have their rights abridged just because they are a gun owner.
5). If a persons guns need to be held by another party, the accused must be able to choose that party eg. a gun dealer, gun club or possibly a service provided by the NRA.
6). If their guns need to be held by the police, there can be no fee associated with that service. (Isn't that why we pay taxes)
7). The police are obligated to return the guns when the order expires.
8. The police are barred from destroying the guns that are left with them for safe keeping.
9). Should the accused be convicted of a disqualifying crime he/she should be able to direct the disposition of the guns. eg. sold by
a licensed dealer or given to an approved third party.
10). The making of false accusations must be a felony. (You can guess why this is necessary)
11). Accusations must be made within 2 years of the triggering event (divorce, breakup etc).
