Anyone know if a simply misdemeanor battery charge is enough to get a CCw revoked?

A permit may be denied,   suspended, or revoked if the applicant
fails to maintain good character as   defined under Utah code 53-5-704.
The permit may also be denied, suspended, or   revoked if the licensing
authority has reasonable cause to believe that the   applicant has been
or is a danger to self or others as demonstrated by evidence  
including, but not limited to:




   



  1. Past pattern of behavior involving unlawful violence or threats of unlawful violence;


  2. Past participation in incidents involving unlawful violence or threats of unlawful violence; or


  3. Conviction of any offense in violation of Utah Criminal / Weapons Code.



   

In determining whether the applicant has been or is a danger to self or others, the division may   inspect:




   



  1. Expunged records of arrests and convictions of adult and juvenile court records;


  2. If a person granted a permit has been charged with a crime of
    violence in Utah or any other state,   the Division shall suspend the
    permit.


  3. Upon notice of the acquittal of the person charged, or notice
    of the charges having been dropped,   the division shall immediately
    reinstate the suspended permit.



   

In the event of a denial, suspension,   or revocation by the
agency, the applicant may file a petition for review with   the board
within 60 days from the date the denial, suspension, or revocation is  
received by the applicant by certified mail, return receipt requested.




   

The denial of a permit shall be in writing and shall include the general reasons for the action.




   

An applicant may appeal a denial to the review board, and in so
doing may have access to the evidence upon which the   denial is based.




   

On appeal to the board, the agency shall have the burden of proof by a preponderance of the   evidence.




   

Upon a ruling by the board on the appeal of a denial, the
division shall issue a final order within 30 days stating the board's
decision.






Not sure which state you are in.

Looks like it's still the case.





See #7 in the FAQ (PDF)



ETA:  Scratch that, only if convicted (if I'm reading it right).

it is a simple battery misdemeanor and has not been convicted at this point, just wondering what would happen if he is convicted. no weapon involved

Very often that's left up to the judge and depends on the circumstances.
