(a) No burial association shall transact any business until the Board has issued a formal license authorizing it to do so, which license shall not issue until it is satisfied that the association has complied with the provisions of this act. Licenses issued to such association shall authorize the association to do business in this state until the last day of June following the date of issuance of the license, and the license may be renewed by the Board annually thereafter, unless sooner suspended, revoked, or renewal refused; provided, however, that any license shall continue in full force and effect until a new license be issued or specifically refused. (b) The Board shall not suspend, revoke, or refuse to renew a license issued to any burial association unless, after a hearing held, it finds that one of the grounds specified in Section 15 of this act exists as to such association. Before the Board shall suspend, revoke, or refuse to issue or renew any license it shall issue a show cause order to such association stating specifically, the nature of the alleged violations, and fixing a time and place, at least ten (10) days thereafter, when a hearing of the matter shall be held. After such hearing, or upon failure of the association to make an appearance, the Board shall render its findings, decision and order in writing. After the Board has rendered its findings, decision and order, any party aggrieved may appeal within twenty (20) days to the district court of Oklahoma county by filing with the clerk of said court a petition in error together with a certified copy of the proceedings of the Board in such matter. If the appeal is from an order of the Board, such order shall not take effect during the pendency of the appeal unless the court shall determine otherwise. The court may review all the facts and in disposing of any issue before it, may modify, affirm or reverse any finding, decision or order of the Board, in whole or in part.
