concealed weapon licensing board may waive the 6-month residency

 

requirement for a temporary license under section 5a(8) if the

 

concealed weapon licensing board determines there is probable cause

 

to believe the safety of the applicant or the safety of a member of

 

the applicant's family is endangered by the applicant's inability


 

to immediately obtain a license to carry a concealed pistol. If the

 

applicant holds a valid concealed pistol license issued by another

 

state at the time the applicant's residency in this state is

 

established, the concealed weapon licensing board may waive the 6-

 

month waiting period and the applicant may apply for a concealed

 

pistol license at the time the applicant's residency in this state

 

is established. The concealed weapon licensing board shall

 

immediately issue a temporary license to that applicant. The

licensing board decides whether to grant or deny the application.

the time the application is made regardless of whether he or she is

 

receiving treatment for that illness.

 

     (m) The applicant is not under a court order of legal

 

incapacity in this state or elsewhere.

 

     (n) Issuing a license to the applicant to carry a concealed

 

pistol in this state is not detrimental to the safety of the

subdivision shall be based on clear and convincing evidence of

 

repeated violations of this act, crimes, personal protection orders

 

or injunctions, or police reports or other clear and convincing

 

evidence of the actions of, or statements of, the applicant that

 

bear directly on the applicant's ability to carry a concealed

 

pistol.

in this section the department of state police shall immediately

 

enter the order or conviction into the law enforcement information

 

network. For purposes of this act, information of the court order


 

or conviction shall not be removed from the law enforcement

 

information network, but may be moved to a separate file intended

 

for the use of the county concealed weapon licensing boards, the

 

courts, and other government entities as necessary and exclusively

 

to determine eligibility to be licensed under this act.

 

     (9) An individual, after submitting an application and paying

 

the fee prescribed under subsection (5), shall request and have

 

classifiable fingerprints taken by the county sheriff or a local

 

police agency if that local police agency maintains fingerprinting

 

capability. If the individual requests that classifiable

 

fingerprints be taken by a local police agency, the individual

 

shall also pay to that local police agency a fee of $15.00 by any

 

method of payment accepted by the unit of local government for

 

payments of other fees and penalties. The county sheriff or local

 

police agency shall take the fingerprints within 5 business days

 

after the request.

 

     (10) The fingerprints shall be taken, under subsection (9), on

 

forms and in a manner prescribed by the department of state police.

 

The fingerprints shall be immediately forwarded to the department

 

of state police for comparison with fingerprints already on file

 

with the department of state police. The department of state police

 

shall forward the fingerprints to the federal bureau of

 

investigation. Within 10 days after receiving a report of the

 

fingerprints from the federal bureau of investigation, the

 

department of state police shall provide a copy to the submitting

 

sheriff's department or local police agency as appropriate and the

 

clerk of the appropriate concealed weapon licensing board. Except


 

as provided in subsection (14), the concealed weapon licensing

 

board shall not issue a concealed pistol license until it receives

 

the fingerprint comparison report prescribed in this subsection.

 

The concealed weapon licensing board may deny a license if an

 

individual's fingerprints are not classifiable by the federal

 

bureau of investigation.

 

     (11) The concealed weapon licensing board shall deny a license

 

to an applicant to carry a concealed pistol if the applicant is not

 

qualified under subsection (7) to receive that license.

 

     (12) A license to carry a concealed pistol that is issued

 

based upon an application that contains a material false statement

 

is void from the date the license is issued.

weapon licensing board shall issue or deny issuance of a license

 

within 45 days after the concealed weapon licensing board receives

 

the fingerprint comparison report provided under subsection (10).

 

If the concealed weapon licensing board denies issuance of a

 

license to carry a concealed pistol, the concealed weapon licensing

 

board shall within 5 business days do both of the following:

 

     (a) Inform the applicant in writing of the reasons for the

 

denial. Information under this subdivision shall include all of the

 

following:

 

     (i) A statement of the specific and articulable facts

 

supporting the denial.

 

     (ii) Copies of any writings, photographs, records, or other

 

documentary evidence upon which the denial is based.

 

     (b) Inform the applicant in writing of his or her right to


 

appeal the denial to the circuit court as provided in section 5d.

 

     (14) If the fingerprint comparison report is not received by

 

the concealed weapon licensing board within 60 days after the

 

fingerprint report is forwarded to the department of state police

 

by the federal bureau of investigation, the concealed weapon

 

licensing board shall issue a temporary license to carry a

 

concealed pistol to the applicant if the applicant is otherwise

 

qualified for a license. A temporary license issued under this

 

section is valid for 180 days or until the concealed weapon

 

licensing board receives the fingerprint comparison report provided

 

under subsection (10) and issues or denies issuance of a license to

 

carry a concealed pistol as otherwise provided under this act. Upon

 

issuance or the denial of issuance of the license to carry a

 

concealed pistol to an applicant who received a temporary license

 

under this section, the applicant shall immediately surrender the

 

temporary license to the concealed weapon licensing board that

 

issued that temporary license.

 

     (15) If an individual licensed under this act to carry a

 

concealed pistol moves to a different county within this state, his

 

or her license remains valid until it expires or is otherwise

 

suspended or revoked under this act. A license to carry a concealed

 

pistol that is lost, stolen, or defaced may be replaced by the

 

issuing county clerk for a replacement fee of $10.00.

 

     (16) If a concealed weapons licensing board suspends or

 

revokes a license issued under this act, the license is forfeited

 

and shall be returned to the concealed weapon licensing board

 

forthwith. An individual who fails to return a license as required


 

under this subsection after he or she was notified that his or her

 

license was suspended or revoked is guilty of a misdemeanor

 

punishable by imprisonment for not more than 93 days or a fine of

 

not more than $500.00, or both.

 

     (17) An applicant or an individual licensed under this act to

 

carry a concealed pistol may be furnished a copy of his or her

 

application under this section upon request and the payment of a

 

reasonable fee.

 

     (18) This section does not prohibit the concealed weapon
