Generally, the document you are asking about is called a "Certificate of Domestic Partnership," not a license. If you have misplaced your certificate and would like a new one, you need to request one from the same authority that issued your first certificate. For city-, town- or county-wide registries, the issuing authority is usually the city clerk, town clerk or county clerk. For state-wide registries (such as in CA, ME, MD, NV, OR, WI or WA), the entity varies by state. In California, for example, it is the California Secretary of State.
You will be required to provide details needed to locate the record, prove your identity to establish your right to obtain the information and, most likely, you will be charged a fee.
There is no license required - only a declaration.

There is a $5 termination fee. You file a termination statement with the City Clerk and send a copy to the other party. There is a six-month waiting period before you can enter into a new domestic partnership.
It depends on the laws in the jurisdiction where the domestic partnerships was registered. Usually, the process involves signing an affidavit and serving a copy of the affidavit on the other party, then providing proof of that service to the clerk and paying a fee. Notably, it is more difficult to dissolve a domestic partnership registered with the State of California.
Generally, domestic partnership is not a bar to marriage, even if it is with someone else. However, if your domestic partnership is with a statewide registry and is substantially equivalent to marriage, then some states may recognize your domestic partnership as a marriage. If that is the case, then you must dissolve your domestic partnership before you can marry another person.
In some places, you must complete an affidavit of domestic partnership and notarize it in order to register your partnership.
A domestic partnership is established when persons meeting the criteria specified by California Family Code section 297file either a Declaration of Domestic Partnership (Form NP/SF DP-1) or a Confidential Declaration of Domestic Partnership (Form NP/SF DP-1A) with the California Secretary of State.

You may be violating the law since you would need to commit perjury on your application for domestic partnership. When two people submit an application for domestic partnership (as with an application for a marriage license) each must swear that neither person is married to someone else or is a member of another domestic partnership with someone else that has not been terminated, dissolved, or adjudged a nullity. If you lie about your status on the application, any subsequent legal relationship you sought to create would be invalid.
At least one partner goes to the office that issued the original certificate, shows identification, pays the applicable fee and receives a copy of the certificate.
