§ 20-409 Issuance, renewal, suspension and revocation of a license.
AC § 20-409
a. A license issued hereunder may be suspended or revoked or its renewal denied by the commissioner at any time for the failure of the licensee to comply with any rule, regulation or order promulgated by the commissioner. Where a license is suspended or revoked or its renewal denied for the reasons set forth in this section, where a penalty is issued pursuant to section 20-409.1 or where such license holder is otherwise disciplined by the commissioner, the commissioner shall post to the department's website and notify all process serving agencies of the suspension, revocation or denial of renewal of such license, the issuance of a penalty pursuant to section 20-409.1 and the reasons for such suspension, revocation or denial of renewal or issuance of such penalty. Such notification and posting shall occur no more than five days from the date the department has suspended, revoked or denied renewal of such license, or issued such penalty. b. In addition to any of the powers that may be exercised by the commissioner pursuant to this subchapter and chapter one of this title, the commissioner, after notice and an opportunity to be heard, may refuse to issue or renew, or may suspend or revoke, a license required under this subchapter if the applicant or licensee, or any of its principals, officers or directors, or any of its stockholders owning more than ten percent of the outstanding stock of the corporation has been convicted of a crime which, in the judgment of the commissioner, has a direct relationship to such person's fitness or ability to perform any of the activities for which a license is required under this subchapter or has been convicted of any other crime which, in accordance with article twenty-three-a of the correction law, would provide a justification for the commissioner to refuse to issue or renew, or to suspend or revoke, such license. c. Upon application for renewal of a license issued pursuant to this subchapter, applicants subject to subdivision (a) of section 20-406.3 of this subchapter shall certify in writing compliance with the record keeping provisions of such section.
