Current through all regulations passed and filed through September 16, 2024
(A) The attorney general may issue a summary suspension of any license issued under Chapter 2915. of the Revised Code without a prior hearing if the attorney general has good cause to believe that the person, licensed organization, licensed distributor, or licensed manufacturer, or any of the employees, officers, directors, agents, representatives, or partners, has violated Chapter 2915. of the Revised Code or a rule adopted under thereunder.
(B) In such cases, notice of the attorney general's order may be sent to the licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor by registered mail, return receipt requested, not later than the business day next succeeding such order. The notice shall state the reasons for the attorney general's action, cite the law or rule directly involved, and state that the licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor will be afforded a hearing if the licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor requests it within thirty days of the time of mailing the notice. A copy of the notice shall be mailed to attorneys or other representatives of record representing the licensed organization.
(C) Whenever a licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor requests a hearing in accordance with this section and section 119.06 of the Revised Code, the attorney general shall immediately set the date, time, and place for the hearing and notify the licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor. The date set for the hearing shall be within fifteen days, but not earlier than seven days, after the party has requested a hearing, unless otherwise agreed to by both the attorney general and the licensed organization, licensed manufacturer, or licensed distributor.
(D) Notice under this section will be provided as outlined in section 119.07 of the Revised Code.
(E) The attorney general shall send notice of such summary suspension in writing to the prosecuting attorney and sheriff of the county in which the licensee is located or where the violation occurred and to any other law enforcement agency that so requests.
