A relative was working as a security guard in Queensland. He lost his licence (2009) when he went to renew it due to a failure to appear on an AVO in NSW and a warrant was issued from a messy break up (2003). (He had a medical cert not to attend handed into court) and police came to ask why he didn't attend he said about medical cert, (and never gave him another notice)
The offence happened in 2003, lost his licence in 2009. He was never charged with assault (or assaulted anyone) just hit with a avo and failure to appear. He had the medical cert because he was hospitalised after his ex and her family took to him with a baseball bat and couldn't see or walk properly.
He spoke to a solicitor in 2009 and nothing could be done apart from returning to NSW and handing himself in.
So.. legal question is, is there a statute of limitations, would he now be eligible to get his security licence back 6 years on?
