Which of the following qualifies someone for a denial of a concealed carry permit in New Mexico?

Prior DUI conviction
Non-violent misdemeanor conviction
Failure to pay child support
Any felony conviction

The correct answer is: Any felony conviction

Certain conditions can disqualify a person from obtaining a concealed carry permit in New Mexico. These include prior felony convictions, such as violent crimes, drug offenses, and domestic violence charges. Option A, a prior DUI conviction, would likely not be a disqualifying factor on its own. Additionally, non-violent misdemeanor convictions, as mentioned in option B, would also not automatically disqualify someone for a concealed carry permit. Failure to pay child support, as stated in option C, is not directly related to a person's ability to safely possess a firearm and is therefore not a consideration for permit denial. The only option that would immediately qualify someone for a denial of a concealed carry permit in New Mexico is option D, any felony conviction.
