Re: Police take Levelland Man's CHL - Improper sign

Since he is not arrested, I think that the local PD was just trying to teach him a lesson and jacked with him. He should pay $25 and file for replacement of lost license. If he truly lost his CHL priviledges, he would've been arrested.

If he sues, but it'll be a hassle. I think a simple letter from your lawyer to their sheriff should suffice.

No. Thats not how the criminal justice system works.
Frankly thats not how our legal system works generally.
That is not how it works, true.

However, a wrongful arrest lawsuit should net him from $5 to $25k based on other firearm rights/wrongful arrest settlements I am aware of.

As far as "test case", highly unlikely this will ever go to trial. The statute language is so clear, that is why it is so clearly a wrongful arrest.
His legal fees will be more than $25,000, I bet.
