More details to this question:
I was lied about from ex wife trying to obtain my property. Courts awarded me in that event. She was awarded a restraining order that was in 2004. I had no contact with her since I moved to another state to insure she wouldn’t threaten me anymore with lies to attempt to have me jailed in order to take my property. As I said I’m in Missouri and no contact with her. I want to restore my right to own a gun and hunt. I never put my hands on her. She stated I was calling, stalking to have order for my arrest, I couldn’t raise $50,000 for bail and was starting new job in new town and couldn’t sit in jail for a couple months awaiting trial and had to plea the no contest thing to be released. Can I be helped in this situation and have my rights restored?

If it was a misdemeanor you are prohibited from owning, using or possessing a gun for at least 13 years, 3 years probation plus 10 years. If a felony it may be 18 years, 5 years probation plus 10 years. That would be at the earliest 2017.
