6-905. Denial, suspension or revocation of licenses A. The superintendent may deny a license to a person or suspend or revoke a license if the superintendent finds that an applicant or licensee: 1. Is insolvent as defined in section 47-1201. 2. Has shown that he is not a person of honesty, truthfulness and good character. 3. Has violated any applicable law, rule or order. 4. Refuses to permit an examination by the superintendent of the licensee's books and affairs or refuses or fails, within a reasonable time, to furnish any information or make any report that may be required by the superintendent. 5. Has been convicted in any state of a felony or any crime of breach of trust or dishonesty. 6. Has had a final judgment entered against him in a civil action upon grounds of fraud, deceit or misrepresentation and the conduct on which the judgment is based indicates that it would be contrary to the interest of the public to permit such person to be licensed or to control or manage a licensee. 7. Has had an order entered against him involving fraud, deceit or misrepresentation by an administrative agency of this state, the federal government or any other state or territory of the United States and that the facts relating to the order indicate that it would be contrary to the interest of the public to permit such person to be licensed or to control or manage a licensee. 8. Has made a material misstatement or suppressed or withheld information on the application for a license or any document required to be filed with the superintendent. B. If a person to whom a license is issued or who has applied for a license under this article is indicted or informed against for forgery, embezzlement, obtaining money under false pretenses, extortion, criminal conspiracy to defraud or a like offense or offenses, and a certified copy of the indictment or information or other proper evidence of the indictment or information is filed with the superintendent, the superintendent may suspend the license issued to the licensee or refuse to grant a license to an applicant pending trial on the indictment. C. If a licensee is other than a natural person, it is sufficient cause for the suspension or revocation of the license if an officer, director, member, partner, trustee, employee, while acting in the course of the mortgage broker business, or person entitled to vote more than twenty per cent of the outstanding voting shares of the licensed corporation, partnership, association or trust has acted or failed to act in the same manner as would be cause for suspending or revoking a license of the party as an individual. If a licensee is a natural person, it is sufficient cause for the suspension or revocation of the license if an employee of the person, while acting as an employee, has acted or failed to act in the course of the mortgage broker business of the licensee in the same manner as would be cause for suspending or revoking a license of the party as an owner. |
