The director may issue a new registration to a lessor of a vehicle for which the registration has been revoked pursuant to section 2 of P.L.1995, c.286 (C.39:3-40.1) provided that the vehicle is not leased to the same lessee. d. The temporary registration authorized under this section shall expire and become void on the last day of the sixth month following the calendar month in which it was issued.
