5 (e) Except as otherwise provided, a licensee in violation

6 of this Act shall be guilty of a Class B misdemeanor. A second

7 or subsequent violation is a Class A misdemeanor. The Illinois

8 State Police may suspend a license for up to 6 months for a

9 second violation and shall permanently revoke a license for 3

10 or more violations of Section 65 of this Act. Any person

11 convicted of a violation under this Section shall pay a $150

12 fee to be deposited into the Mental Health Reporting Fund,

13 plus any applicable court costs or fees.

14 (f) A licensee convicted or found guilty of a violation of

15 this Act who has a valid license and is otherwise eligible to

16 carry a concealed firearm shall only be subject to the

17 penalties under this Section and shall not be subject to the

18 penalties under Section 21-6, paragraph (4), (8), or (10) of

19 subsection (a) of Section 24-1, or subparagraph (A-5) or (B-5)

20 of paragraph (3) of subsection (a) of Section 24-1.6 of the

21 Criminal Code of 2012. Except as otherwise provided in this

22 subsection, nothing in this subsection prohibits the licensee

23 from being subjected to penalties for violations other than

24 those specified in this Act.

25 (g) A licensee whose license is revoked, suspended, or

26 denied shall, within 48 hours of receiving notice of the

LRB104 05033 BDA 15061 b

1 revocation, suspension, or denial, surrender his or her

2 concealed carry license to the local law enforcement agency

3 where the person resides. The local law enforcement agency

4 shall provide the licensee a receipt and transmit the

5 concealed carry license to the Illinois State Police. If the

6 licensee whose concealed carry license has been revoked,

7 suspended, or denied fails to comply with the requirements of

8 this subsection, the law enforcement agency where the person

9 resides may petition the circuit court to issue a warrant to

10 search for and seize the concealed carry license in the

11 possession and under the custody or control of the licensee

12 whose concealed carry license has been revoked, suspended, or

13 denied. The observation of a concealed carry license in the

14 possession of a person whose license has been revoked,

15 suspended, or denied constitutes a sufficient basis for the

16 arrest of that person for violation of this subsection. A

17 violation of this subsection is a Class A misdemeanor.

18 (h) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (h-5), a

19 license issued ~~or renewed~~ under this Act shall be revoked if,

20 at any time, the licensee is found ineligible for a Firearm

21 Owner's Identification Card, or the licensee no longer

22 possesses a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card. If the

23 Firearm Owner's Identification Card is expired or suspended

24 rather than denied or revoked, the license may be suspended

25 for a period of up to one year to allow the licensee to

26 reinstate his or her Firearm Owner's Identification Card. The

1 Illinois State Police shall adopt rules to enforce this

2 subsection. A licensee whose license is revoked under this

3 subsection (h) shall surrender his or her concealed carry

4 license as provided for in subsection (g) of this Section.

5 ~~This subsection shall not apply to a person who has filed~~

6 ~~an application with the Illinois State Police for renewal of a~~

7 ~~Firearm Owner's Identification Card and who is not otherwise~~

8 ~~ineligible to obtain a Firearm Owner's Identification Card.~~

9 (h-5) If the Firearm Owner's Identification Card of a

10 licensee under this Act expires during the term of the license

11 issued under this Act, the license and the Firearm Owner's

12 Identification Card remain valid, and the Illinois State

13 Police may automatically renew the licensee's Firearm Owner's

14 Identification Card as provided in subsection (c) of Section 5

15 of the Firearm Owners Identification Card Act.

16 (i) A certified firearms instructor who knowingly provides

17 or offers to provide a false certification that an applicant

18 has completed firearms training as required under this Act is

19 guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. A person guilty of a violation

20 of this subsection (i) is not eligible for court supervision.

21 The Illinois State Police shall permanently revoke the

22 firearms instructor certification of a person convicted under

23 this subsection (i).
