 6 cannot be obtained after two attempts, the attorney general shall
 
 7 determine eligibility based upon name checks conducted by the
 
 8 criminal justice data center.

 2 address, or within thirty days after having a license lost or
 
 3 destroyed, the licensee shall notify the lieutenant governor of
 
 4 the change or loss.  Failure to notify the lieutenant governor
 
 5 pursuant to this subsection shall constitute a noncriminal
 
 6 violation with a penalty of a $25 civil fine.
 
 7      (i)  In the event that a concealed weapon or firearm license
 
 8 is lost or destroyed, the license shall be automatically invalid,

13      (j)  A license issued under this section shall be suspended
 
14 or revoked by the lieutenant governor, pursuant to subsection
 
15 (k), if the licensee is found to be or subsequently becomes
 
16 ineligible under the criteria set forth in subsection (b) or (c).
 
17      (k)  Any person denied a license, or who has a license
 
18 suspended or revoked, under this section shall have the right to
 
19 a hearing on the denial, or suspension or revocation, subject to
 
20 the requirements for contested cases and judicial review under
 
21 chapter 91.
 
22      (l)  No less than ninety days prior to the expiration date

13 licensee who fails to file a renewal application on or before its
 
14 expiration date shall renew the license by paying a late fee of
 
15 $15.  No license shall be renewed more than six months after its
 
16 expiration date, and the license shall be deemed to be
 
17 permanently expired.  A person whose license has been permanently
 
18 expired may reapply for licensure; however, an application for
 
19 licensure and fees pursuant to subsection (e) shall be submitted,
 
20 and a background investigation shall be conducted pursuant to
