The Alameda County Sheriff’s Department is facing criticism over its issuing of concealed carry weapon (CCW) permits, with the California Rifle & Pistol Association (CRPA) sending a pre-litigation letter.

In addition to delays, complaints range from constitutional violations to invasive obstructions that cross not only California law but also a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling, according to Attorney Konstadinos T. Moros, who represents the CRPA.
