THE SECONDARY MORTGAGE LOAN ACT (EXCERPT) Act 125 of 1981 493.61 Suspension, revocation, or refusal to issue or renew license or registration; notice; hearing; findings; facts or conditions; surrender of license or registration; preexisting contract not affected; lost or destroyed license or registration certificate. Sec. 11. (1) The commissioner shall give notice to a licensee, registrant, or applicant of the commissioner's intention to enter an order to suspend or revoke a license or registration or to refuse to issue a license or registration. The notice shall be in writing and served personally or sent by certified mail to the licensee, registrant, or applicant. (2) A licensee, registrant, or applicant may request a hearing to contest the intention to enter an order or refusal under subsection (1) within 20 days after service of the notice. If a hearing regarding suspension, revocation, or refusal to issue a license or registration is not requested, the commissioner shall enter a final order regarding the suspension, revocation, or refusal to issue a license or registration. The hearing shall be conducted under the provisions of the administrative procedures act of 1969, 1969 PA 306, MCL 24.201 to 24.328. The commissioner may suspend, revoke, or refuse to issue or renew a license or registration if he or she finds that the licensee or registrant or an owner, director, officer, member, partner, stockholder, employee, or agent of a licensee or registrant has done any of the following: (a) Made a material misstatement in an application. (b) Engaged in fraud, deceit, or material misrepresentation in connection with any transaction subject to this act. (c) Failed after 10 days' written notice of default, to pay an annual operating fee, to maintain in effect a bond as required by the commissioner, or to comply with a demand, ruling, or requirement of the commissioner lawfully made under this act. (d) Either knowingly or without the exercise of due care to prevent it, violated this act or a rule promulgated under this act. (3) The commissioner may suspend, revoke, or refuse to renew a license or registration upon a finding of a fact or condition that, if the fact or condition had existed at the time of the original application for the license or registration, clearly would have warranted the commissioner to refuse to issue the license or registration originally. (4) A licensee or registrant may surrender a license or registration by delivering to the commissioner the license or registration with written notice that the licensee or registrant surrenders the license or registration. The surrender, suspension, or revocation of a license or registration under this act shall not affect the licensee's or registrant's civil or criminal liability for acts committed in violation of this act. The surrender of a license or registration does not affect a proceeding to suspend or revoke a license or registration. (5) Except as otherwise provided by law, a surrender, suspension, or revocation of a license or registration does not impair or affect the obligation of a preexisting contract between the licensee or registrant and another person. (6) A licensee or registrant whose license or registration certificate has been destroyed or lost may comply with this section by submitting to the commissioner a notarized affidavit of the loss accompanied by written notice that the licensee or registrant surrenders the license or registration.
