Those who could possibly be at risk of being reported to NICS would be notified during their adjudication process that they might lose their gun rights depending on the findings. Those who did will be notified in writing and have an opportunity to have their case reviewed during which they would have to provide written statements, current and past mental health status for the past five years as well as a criminal history report.

... why these mental health diagnoses and criminal reports haven't already been reported to NICS? I'm not really comfortable with using the Social Security system as a law enforcement tool.
