Any judge of the municipal court, after due notice and a hearing, shall have power to order the cancellation of any license issued under the authority of subsection a. of R.S. 45:24-9 if: a. the license has been sold or transferred by the original licensee; b. during the term of the license, the licensee has been convicted of a crime and this conviction relates adversely to the activity for which the license was granted; or c. during the term of the license, the licensee has been found guilty of violating a municipal ordinance and this violation relates adversely to the activity for which the license was granted. The judge of the municipal court shall mail the order of cancellation to the county clerk in whose county the license was granted and thereupon the county clerk shall cancel the same of record and file the order of cancellation in his office and send notice of such cancellation to the office of the adjutant general. Application for a new license may be made at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of the cancellation. Any licensee holding a license issued under the authority of subsection a. of R.S. 45:24-9 who shall sell or transfer such license shall be guilty of a crime of the fourth degree and punished accordingly. A “transfer” has occurred under this section if the original licensee knowingly permits someone other than himself to use the license to engage in the activity for which the license was granted.
