1. 
Were issued after a hearing of which such person received actual notice and had the opportunity to participate; and
2.

1. 
The person no longer constitutes a threat against any household or family member; and
2. 
Prior to issuance of the order, that the person used a firearm for subsistence hunting.
If the Court finds that the person has met the requirements of subsections (C)(1) and (C)(2) of this section, the Court may exercise its discretion to allow the person to use a firearm for subsistence hunting during authorized hunting seasons. Said firearm shall be stored at Tribal law enforcement and may only be released during hunting seasons under terms and conditions set by the Court. Said firearm may only be used for subsistence hunting. The person shall not be allowed to possess or otherwise bring said firearm or any other firearm into the person's residence. Violation of these conditions shall result in immediate revocation of firearm use privileges.
