I should think not. The merits of the case matter.

It is completely irrelevant. Even your father's license cannot guarantee you a new one until he turns 60. In that case the license can be transferred.

Actually I had an apprehension that if any of your family member already has a Arm License , authority usually hesitate or deny license to you saying that there is already an arm in the family. I heard it from the some officials from the licensing authority. Is it true or has merits or lawful. Can anyone advise?

@ maan - Whilst some Licensing Authorities may be following such practices, it is neither lawful nor does it have any merits.
