Indiana § 36-4-5-5

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Title 36: LOCAL GOVERNMENT
• Art. 4: GOVERNMENT OF CITIES AND TOWNS
• Ch. 5: City Executive

Text

On reasonable notice of at least three (3) days
to the person complained of, the executive shall hear any complaint
against a person to whom the city has issued a license, and may issue
subpoenas to compel the attendance of witnesses, administer oaths to
those witnesses, and require them to testify. To the extent they can be
applied, the Indiana rules of procedure, including the right to appear by
counsel and to compel the attendance of witnesses for or against
persons complained of, apply to proceedings under this section. If the
executive finds that the person complained of has wilfully violated a
term or condition of the person's license, or has wilfully done or
permitted to be done an act in violation of a statute or city ordinance
relating to the business licensed, the executive shall revoke or suspend
the license. The executive shall file a copy of the executive's findings
and determination with the city fiscal officer within twenty-four (24)
hours after it is made.
