A. The director may issue an emergency order, without prior notice and an opportunity for hearing, if the director finds that: (1) the action, violation or condition that is the basis for the order: (a) has caused or is likely to cause the insolvency of the licensee; (b) has caused or is likely to cause the substantial dissipation of the licensee's assets or earnings; (c) has seriously weakened or is likely to seriously weaken the condition of the licensee; or (d) has seriously prejudiced or is likely to seriously prejudice the interests of the licensee, a purchaser of the licensee's money services or the public; and (2) immediate action is necessary to protect the interests of the licensee, a purchaser of the licensee's money services or the public. B. In connection with and as directed by an emergency order, the director may secure the records and assets of a licensee or authorized delegate that relate to the licensee's money services business. C. An emergency order shall: (1) state the grounds on which the order is based; (2) advise the person against whom the order is directed that the order takes effect immediately, and, to the extent applicable, require the person to immediately cease and desist from the conduct or violation that is the subject of the order or to take the affirmative action stated in the order as necessary to correct a condition resulting from the conduct or violation or as otherwise appropriate; (3) be delivered by personal delivery or sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the person against whom the order is directed at the person's last known address; and (4) include a notice that a person may request a hearing on the order by filing a written request for a hearing with the director not later than the fifteenth day after the date the order is delivered or mailed. D. An emergency order takes effect as soon as the order is served on the person against whom the order is directed. E. A licensee or authorized delegate against whom an emergency order is directed must submit a written certification to the director, signed by the licensee or authorized delegate, and their principals and responsible individuals, as applicable, and each person named in the order, stating that each person has received a copy of and has read and understands the order. F. Unless the director receives a written request for a hearing from a person against whom an emergency order is directed not later than the fifteenth day after the date the order is delivered or mailed, the order is final as to that person on the sixteenth day after the date the order is delivered or mailed. G. A request for a hearing does not stay an emergency order. H. A hearing on an emergency order takes precedence over any other matter pending before the director and must be held not later than the tenth day after the date the director receives the written request for hearing unless a hearing officer extends the period for good cause or the parties agree to a later hearing date. I. A final emergency order may be appealed to the district court as provided in Section 39-3-1.1 NMSA 1978.
