No hearing shall be required regarding the suspension of privileges pursuant to this section.
(3) Any person hunting, fishing or trapping while such privileges are suspended under the provisions of this section, shall be in violation of the provisions of title 36, Idaho Code, prohibiting hunting, fishing or trapping without a valid license.
(4) Any person whose hunting, fishing or trapping license has been suspended under the provisions of this section may appeal to the district court in the county where the infraction judgment was entered within the time and in the manner provided for criminal appeals from the magistrates division to the district court.

The department upon receipt of a copy of such order shall reinstate the person’s license.
