Rule 641-194.2 - Denial of Issuance or Renewal of a License or Suspension or Revocation of a License
Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 6, September 18, 2024
The licensing authority shall deny the issuance or renewal of a license or suspend or revoke a license upon the receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the centralized collection unit per the procedure set forth in Iowa Code chapter 272D. This rule shall apply in addition to the procedures set forth in Iowa Code chapter 272D.
(1) Service of denial, suspension or revocation notice. Notice will be served upon the applicant or licensee by certified mail, return receipt requested; by personal service; or through authorized counsel.
(2) Licensees and applicants responsible to inform licensing authority. Licensees and applicants shall keep the licensing authority informed of all court actions and all centralized collection unit actions taken under or in connection with Iowa Code chapter 272D. Licensees and applicants shall also provide the licensing authority copies, within seven days of filing or issuance, of all applications filed with the district court pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 272D, all court orders entered in such actions, and any withdrawals of certificates issued by the centralized collection unit.
(3) Reinstatement following license denial, suspension or revocation. All licensing authority fees required for application, license renewal, or license reinstatement must be paid by applicants or licensees before a license will be issued, renewed, or reinstated after the licensing authority has denied the issuance or renewal of a license or suspended or revoked a license pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 272D.
(4) Effect of filing in district court. In the event an applicant or a licensee files a timely district court action following service of a denial notice by a licensing authority or service of a revocation or suspension notice, the licensing authority will continue with the intended action described in the notice upon the receipt of a court order lifting the stay, dismissing the action, or otherwise directing the licensing authority to proceed. For purposes of determining the effective date of the denial of the issuance or renewal of a license or of the suspension or revocation of a license, the licensing authority will count the number of days before the action was filed and the number of days after the action was disposed of by the court.
(5) Final notification. The licensing authority will notify the applicant or licensee in writing through regular first-class mail, or by such other means as the licensing authority determines appropriate in the circumstances, and will similarly notify the applicant or licensee if the license is issued or renewed following the licensing authority's receipt of a withdrawal certificate.
