(a) The Commissioner shall have the power and authority to issue and serve an order upon a person to cease and desist from any violation or practice if, in the opinion of the Commissioner, a transporter subject to this chapter is engaging in, or has engaged in, or, if the Commissioner has reasonable cause to believe that such institution or company is about to engage, in any of the following:

(1) A violation of a law, rule or regulation relating to the supervision of such transporter;

(2) A violation of any written agreement entered into with the Commissioner; or

(3) A violation of warranties, terms or conditions of the insurance contract(s) which may, in the judgment of the Commissioner, lead to an inability to recover.

(b) Such order may require the officers or directors of the institution or company to take affirmative action to correct any violation or practice.

(c) A cease and desist order issued pursuant to this section shall include a statement of the facts upon which the order is based, specific activities which the financial institution must cease, the affirmative acts required of the financial institution and the effective date of the order. A cease and desist order may be served by any member of the State Bank Commissioner’s Office who is designated by the Commissioner. Service may be effected by hand delivering the order to the transporter at its principal place of business during normal working hours.

(d) Except as provided in subsection (e) of this section, a cease and desist order shall not become effective in less than 10 days after the order is served. After an order is served, but before its effective date, upon petition of any interested party, the Commissioner shall conduct a hearing. At the conclusion of such hearing, the Commissioner may affirm the cease and desist order as originally issued, or the Commissioner may modify, amend or rescind such order.

(e) Whenever, in the opinion of the Commissioner, the violation or practice set forth in subsection (a) of this section represents an immediate danger or substantial harm to the interests of the public, the Commissioner may issue a cease and desist order pursuant to subsection (a) of this section, which shall become effective upon service thereof, without prior notice or hearing. Upon the application of an interested party, the Commissioner shall afford an opportunity for a hearing to consider rescission of any order issued pursuant to this subsection, and any action taken promptly thereafter.
