(a) Suspension for unpaid fines/fees. The DCTAC may
suspend a license if the licensee or any applicant for the license
is delinquent in the payment of property taxes or criminal fines or
fees owed to Denton County.
(1) Suspension notice. DCTAC shall send notice of suspension,
which notice shall include a statement identifying the unpaid fines/fees,
by certified mail. Notice of suspension of a Runner license under
this section shall be sent to the most recent home address on file
for licensee. Notice of a Title Service license suspension under this
section shall be sent to the attention of "all" MVTS partners, owners,
officers, directors, or principals (as applicable) at the most recent
primary physical business address on file for licensee. Suspension
shall become effective upon the date notice is sent. Failure to pay
the fines/fees identified in the suspension notice within 30 days
of the suspension date shall result in revocation of the license.
(2) A license suspended under subsection (a) of this
section will be reinstated if, within 30 days of the suspension's
effective date, licensee provides DCTAC with notice that includes
a certified copy of the Denton County invoice showing that the fines/fees
identified in the suspension notice have been paid in full. Licensee
may deliver such notice in writing by certified mail, return receipt
requested, in which case notice will be considered received by DCTAC
on the date the return is signed. Licensee may deliver such notice
in person by presenting a certified copy of the paid invoice at a
DCTAC location, in which case notice shall be considered received
when the DCTAC issues licensee a copy of the file-stamped invoice
submitted. If DCTAC becomes aware that, within 30 days of suspension,
the fee/fines identified in the suspension notice were paid in full,
the DCTAC is not required but may elect to reinstate the suspended
license without notice from licensee.
(b) Automatic Suspension.
(1) A title service license shall be automatically
suspended upon the addition or replacement of any of the title service's
principals, partners, officers, owners or directors. A title service
shall immediately deliver written notice of any such addition or replacement
and the license issued under §430.12(b) of this chapter (relating
to License Renewal) to DCTAC by certified mail, return receipt requested.
(2) Within ten (10) days of becoming a new principal,
partner, owner, officer or director in a title service described in
paragraph (1) of this subsection, a person may submit an MVTS license
application that meets the criteria set forth in §430.5 of this
chapter (relating to Submission of Application) and §430.6 of
this chapter (relating to Completion of Vehicle Title Service License
Application). If the application is granted following completion of
the process set forth in §430.8 of this chapter (relating to
Application Review/Applicant Background Check/Applicant Interview),
the license shall become effective again on the date notice is sent
under §430.8(c)(2) of this chapter. In this event, the license
shall expire on the anniversary or its original effective date.
(3) If the completed application of a prospective principal,
partner, owner, officer or director in a licensed MVTS is received,
reviewed and approved in accordance with §§430.5, 430.6,
and 430.8 of this chapter before the prospective position is actually
assumed, the license will not become ineffective under paragraph (1)
of this subsection when the applicant assumes that position.
