i am currently in the process of my shotgun licence application.at the moment the police are waiting on the person who signed my photo to come out of hospital. i have never been in trouble with the police until saturday 26th january 2008. i said trouble but it was a stop check . basically a few mates and i stayed in another friends hotel room in birmingham , i went to sleep and so did a few others but the rest thought it would be funny to stay up and throw things out the window. anyway we got chucked out the hotel by the police and given a stop check form, when doing a body search on my name it came back that i was in the process of applying for my licence i was assured by the officer that it would not affect my application but im bloody worried now. can anyone enlighten me on whether it will affect my application please? after all its not a criminal conviction, or arrest or any other offence or even a caution its just classed as a stop check.
