Gun Control Act, Section 922(g)(8), prohibits possession, transfer, yada 
yada yada, of a firearm by a person *subject to* a qualifying protection 
order.

On another list the question has arisen whether this is a permanent 
disability or if there are circumstances under which the prohibition no 
longer applies.

The obvious question seems to be what is "subject to?"  Does the 
"typical" protection order extend indefinitely into the future, or are 
the issued for a definite term.  If the latter, does expiration of the 
term remove the disability?

Any informative comments from those who really understand this will be 
appreciated.
