(g) When a person has been convicted during a two year period of two or more misdemeanor offenses for which a forfeitable bail amount has been set under AS 16.05.165 , a peace officer may file a civil action in the district court to revoke the person's license. Once an action has been filed, the court shall set a time and date for a hearing on the proposed license revocation, and shall send notice of the hearing to the person. The hearing shall be before the court without a jury. At the hearing the court shall hear evidence regarding the nature and seriousness of the offenses for which the person was convicted, the time period involved, the potential effect of the person's actions upon the preservation of the resource, and other relevant circumstances. If the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the person's actions demonstrate a disregard for the preservation of the state's fish or wildlife resources, the court may revoke the person's license for a period of not less than one year nor more than three years from the date of revocation.
