1. If the Commissioner has reason to
believe that grounds exist for the suspension, revocation or denial of renewal
of a license, the Commissioner shall give 10 days written notice to the
licensee, stating the grounds therefor, and shall set a date for a hearing, if
a hearing is requested by the licensee. If the protection of the public so
requires, the Commissioner may suspend the license at any time before the
hearing.
2. At the conclusion of the hearing, the
Commissioner shall enter a written order either dismissing the charges or
suspending, revoking or denying the renewal of the license. The order must
include a statement of the grounds for the action taken by the Commissioner and
becomes effective 10 days after receipt of a copy of the order by the licensee
at the licensees principal place of business. The Commissioner may immediately
suspend, revoke or deny the renewal of the license in a case where the licensee
has failed to maintain in effect the required surety bond or insurance policy.
3. The grounds for suspension, revocation
or denial of renewal of a license are that:
(a) The licensee has failed to pay the annual fee
for renewal or the fee for late renewal;

the required bond or securities;
(c) The licensee has committed an act of fraud,
misrepresentation or gross negligence or has omitted any material fact in any
application, statement or report;
(d) The licensee has failed to pay any judgment
arising from the licensees business within 30 days after the judgment becomes
final or within 30 days after the expiration of a stay of execution on the
judgment;
(e) The licensee has failed to cooperate with an
examination or investigation by the Commissioner;
(f) The competence, experience, character or
general fitness of the licensee, an authorized delegate of the licensee, a
responsible person of such an authorized delegate, a person in control of the
licensee or a key individual of the licensee indicates that it is not in the
public interest to allow the licensee to provide money transmission;
(g) The licensee has engaged in an unsafe or
unsound practice;
(h) The licensee is insolvent, suspends payment
of its obligations or makes a general assignment for the benefit of its
creditors;
(i) The licensee has not removed an authorized
delegate of the licensee after the Commissioner issued and served on the
licensee a final order that includes a finding that the authorized delegate has
committed a violation of any provision of this chapter or any regulation
adopted or order issued by the Commissioner pursuant to this chapter;
(j) An authorized delegate of the licensee, as a
result of the willful misconduct or willful blindness of the licensee, has been
convicted of a violation of a state or federal anti-money laundering statute or
has committed a violation of any provision of this chapter or any regulation
adopted or order issued by the Commissioner pursuant to this chapter; or
(k) The licensee has committed a violation of any
provision of this chapter or any regulation adopted or order issued by the Commissioner
pursuant to this chapter.
4. In determining whether a licensee has
engaged in an unsafe or unsound practice pursuant to paragraph (g) of
subsection 3, the Commissioner may consider the size and condition of the money
transmission of the licensee, the magnitude of the loss, the gravity of the
violation of the provisions of this chapter or the regulations adopted or order
issued by the Commissioner pursuant thereto and the previous conduct of the
licensee.
5. Any action taken by the Commissioner
pursuant to this section is subject to judicial review in the first judicial
district court.
