CRIMINAL LAWAND PROCEDURE
276
(B) seventy-five dollars ($75) for a
lifetime unlimited license from a per-
son who does not currently possess a
valid Indiana handgun license; or
(C) sixty dollars ($60) for a lifetime
unlimited license from a person who
currently possesses a valid Indiana
handgun license.
The superintendent shall charge a twenty dollar
($20) fee for the issuance of a duplicate license to
replace a lost or damaged license. These fees
shall be deposited in accordance with subsection
(e).
(c) Licensed dealers are exempt from the pay-
ment of fees specified in subsection (b) for a qual-
ified license or an unlimited license.
(d) The following officers of this state or the
United States who have honorably retired by a law-
fully created pension board or its equivalent after
at least twenty (20) years of service or because of
a disability are exempt from the payment of fees
specified in subsection (b):
(1) Police officers.
(2) Sheriffs or their deputies.
(3) Law enforcement officers.
(4) Correctional officers.
(e) Fees collected under this section shall be
deposited in the state general fund.
(f) The superintendent may not issue a lifetime
qualified license or a lifetime unlimited license to
a person who is a resident of another state. The
superintendent may issue a four (4) years quali-
fied license or a four (4) year unlimited license to
a person who is a resident of another state and who
has a regular place of business or employment in
Indiana as described in section 3(a)(3) of this
chapter.
(g) A person who knowingly or intentionally
violates this section commits a Class B misde-
meanor.
35-47-2-5. Suspension or revocation of
license.
(a) The superintendent may suspend or revoke
any license issued under this chapter if the super-
intendent 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(g)(5)
of this chapter from being issued a license, shall
be grounds for immediate suspension or revoca-
tion of a license previously issued under this chap-
ter. However, if a license is suspended or revoked
based solely on an arrest under section 3(g)(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 com-
mits a Class Amisdemeanor. 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.
35-47-2-6. Time for review of application.
(a) Every initial application for any license
under this chapter shall be granted or rejected
within sixty (60) days after the application is
filed.
(b) The period during which an application
for the renewal of an existing license may be filed
begins three hundred sixty-five (365) days before
the expiration of the existing license. If the appli-
cation for renewal of an existing license is filed
within thirty (30) days of its expiration, the exist-
ing license is automatically extended until the
application for renewal is passed upon.
35-47-2-7. Prohibited sales or transfers.
(a) Except an individual acting within a par-
ent-minor child or guardian-minor protected per-
son relationship or any other individual who is also
acting in compliance with IC 35-47-10 (govern-
ing children and firearms), a person may not sell,
give, or in any other manner transfer the owner-
ship or possession of a handgun or assault weapon
to any person under eighteen (18) years of age.
(b) A person who knowingly or intentionally
sells, gives, or in any other manner transfers the
ownership or possession of a handgun to another
person who the person knows:
(1) is ineligible for any reason other than
the person’s age to purchase or otherwise
