A pardon won't get your firearms rights restored. You still remain convicted of the charge.
Depending on the circumstances of the case it may be possible to have a domestic violence misdemeanor expunged from your record. In California a domestic violence allegation can be charged as a felony or a misdemeanor.
Yes the governor can pardon any crime committed in the state where they govern. But DWIs usually aren't pardoned.
For a full pardon from a State of New York offense, you must ask the Governor. If it is a federal charge you must write the President.
Yes. Only the Governor of a state can grant a pardon.
NO! You may NOT you will be committing a FELONY under current Federal Law, per the Lautenberg Amendment/Domestic Violence Misdemeanor Amendment to the Gun Control Act of 1968 (Title 18, U.S.C. Section 922(g)(9). Any person who has been convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence cannot possess a firearm or ammunition, unless the conviction was expunged, set aside, or you received a pardon.
That depends. IF the felony was for violation of a Federal law, OR a conviction for a crime of Domestic Violence, the FEDERAL law prohibits you from possessing a firearm, unless you receive a pardon from the President. If it was a State crime, and was NOT a crime of Domestic Violence, AND it has been 10 years since you were released, you CAN apply for a pardon by the Governor. Since 2012 there have been 4 pardons issued in Colorado related to restoration of gun rights.

You have a better chance of winning the lottery.
