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 days of the date the order is served, the
order is final. If a hearing is held and the commissioner finds that the record so
warrants, the commissioner may enter a final order. The final order suspending or
removing the current or former employee is final. The current or former officer or
employee may request a termination of the final order after a period of no less than
three years.
4. A contested or default suspension or removal order is effective immediately upon
issuance on the current or former officer or employee and upon the licensee. A
consent order is effective as agreed. Any current or former officer or employee
suspended or removed from employment and participation within the conduct or the
affairs of a residential mortgage loan servicer pursuant to this section is not eligible,
while under suspension or removal, to be employed or otherwise participate in the
affairs of any financial corporation, financial institution, credit union, or any other entity
licensed by the department of financial institutions.
5. When any current or former officer or employee, or other person participating in the
conduct of the affairs of a licensee is charged with a felony in state or federal court
which involves dishonesty or breach of trust, the commissioner may immediately
suspend the person from office or prohibit the person from further participation in the
affairs of any entity licensed or chartered by the department. The order is effective
upon issuance and remains in effect until the criminal charge is finally disposed of or
until modified by the commissioner. If a judgment of conviction, federal pretrial
diversion, conviction or agreement to plea to lesser charges, or similar state order or
judgment is entered, the suspension or prohibition is permanent. A finding of not guilty
or other disposition of the charge does not preclude the commissioner from pursuing
administrative or civil remedies.
