§ 5-257 Lost or Mutilated Licenses.
(a) Lost license. A licensee shall immediately report, in an affidavit, the loss of a license issued to him or her by the Department, requesting the issuance of a new license. Replacement licenses are issued at the discretion of the Department. (b) Mutilated license. Should a license issued by the Department to any licensee become mutilated or otherwise illegible, the holder of the license shall promptly surrender it to the Department and request the issuance of a new license. The request shall be made upon a form provided by the Department. (c) Fee. A fee of fifteen dollars ($15) shall be charged for the issuance of a replacement license. This fee shall be paid when the affidavit for a lost license is filed or when a mutilated or otherwise illegible license is surrendered and a request for the issuance of a new license is filed. This fee will be refunded should the Department decide not to issue the replacement license.
