e. Engaged in any unfair or deceptive acts, practices, or advertising in the conduct
of a deferred presentment service business;
f. Failed to maintain the required bond; or
g. Failed to maintain registration with the secretary of state if so required.
2. The order must contain a notice of opportunity for hearing pursuant to chapter 28-32.

3. If a hearing is not requested within twenty business days of the date the order is
served upon the licensee or if a hearing is held and the commissioner finds that the
record so warrants, the commissioner may enter a final order suspending or revoking
the license.
4. If the commissioner finds that probable cause for revocation of any license exists and
that enforcement of the chapter requires immediate suspension of such license
pending investigation, it may upon written notice enter an order temporarily
suspending such license for a period not exceeding sixty days, pending the holding of
a hearing as prescribed in this chapter.
