Text

(1) Except as provided in ORS 183.745, upon entry of a cease and desist order under ORS 673.605 to 673.740, the State Board of Tax Practitioners shall promptly give appropriate notice of the cease and desist order as provided in this section. The notice shall state that a hearing will be held on the cease and desist order if written demand for a hearing is filed with the board within 20 days after the date of service of the cease and desist order.
(2) If timely demand for a hearing is filed under subsection (1) of this section, the board shall hold a contested case hearing on the cease and desist order as provided by ORS chapter 183. In the event of a contested case hearing, the civil penalties assessed in the cease and desist order are suspended until issuance of a final order, but the remaining provisions of the cease and desist order shall remain in full force and effect until issuance of the final order. A person is not entitled to judicial review of a cease and desist order unless the person has made a timely demand for a hearing.
(3) After the hearing, the board shall enter a final order vacating, modifying or affirming the cease and desist order.
(4) A person aggrieved by a cease and desist order of the board that was the subject of a timely application for hearing shall be entitled to judicial review of the cease and desist order under ORS chapter 183.
(5) A judgment of a reviewing court under ORS chapter 183 does not bar the board from thereafter vacating or modifying a cease and desist order involved in the proceeding for review, or entering any new order, for a proper cause that was not decided by the reviewing court.
(6) The board may file an injunction against a person for failure to comply with a cease and desist order.
