Section 35-47-2-5 - Suspension or revocation of license; failure to return license; rules concerning procedure for suspending or revoking license(a) The superintendent may suspend or revoke any license issued under this chapter if the superintendent has reasonable grounds to believe that the person's license should be suspended or revoked.(b) Documented evidence that a person is not a "proper person" to be licensed as defined by IC 35-47-1-7, or is prohibited under section 3(i)(5) of this chapter from being issued a license, shall be grounds for immediate suspension or revocation of a license previously issued under this chapter. However, if a license is suspended or revoked based solely on an arrest under section 3(i)(5) of this chapter, the license shall be reinstated upon the acquittal of the defendant in that case or upon the dismissal of the charges for the specific offense.(c) A person who knowingly or intentionally fails to promptly return the person's license after written notice of suspension or revocation commits a Class A misdemeanor. The observation of a handgun license in the possession of a person whose license has been suspended or revoked constitutes a sufficient basis for the arrest of that person for violation of this subsection.(d) The superintendent shall establish rules under IC 4-22-2 concerning the procedure for suspending or revoking a person's license.Amended by P.L. 165-2021,SEC. 198, eff. 7/1/2021.Amended by P.L. 107-2019,SEC. 10, eff. 7/1/2019.Amended by P.L. 158-2013, SEC. 576, eff. 7/1/2014.As added by P.L. 311-1983, SEC.32.
