Looking for any recommendations--
I recently lost my wallet containing a Georgia Weapons Carry License. Pursuant to state law, I reported it lost to the issuing probate court (Gwinnett) and asked for a replacement. I recently have moved to another county (Dekalb). The state law specifically states that the issuing court must take the loss notice and must issue a replacement license. There is no provision in state law to "change address" for a LTC here.
The Gwinnett county probate court refused to issue a replacement license and states that I must re-apply, pay the full new application fee, and restart the application process and background check in my new county. Neither county will issue a temporary license, so I am barred from carrying for the 3-5 months that it will take to issue.
Does anyone have any ideas here? The state law regarding lost permits and re-issue is pretty clear, and I don't feel that the probate court is following it.
