1. A licensing authority shall maintain records of licensees by name, current known address, and social security number. The records shall be made available to the unit in an electronic format in order for the unit to match the names of the persons with any liability placed with the unit for collection. 2. In addition to other grounds for suspension, revocation, or denial of issuance or renewal of a license, a licensing authority shall include in rules adopted by the licensing authority as grounds for suspension, revocation, or denial of issuance or renewal of a license, the receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the unit. 3. The supreme court shall prescribe rules for admission of persons to practice as attorneys and counselors pursuant to chapter 602, article 10, which include provisions, as specified in this chapter, for the denial, suspension, or revocation of the admission for failure to pay a liability placed with the unit. 4. a. A licensing authority that is issued a certificate of noncompliance shall initiate procedures for the suspension, revocation, or denial of issuance or renewal of licensure to a person. The licensing authority shall utilize existing rules and procedures for suspension, revocation, or denial of the issuance or renewal of a license. b. In addition, the licensing authority shall provide notice to the person of the licensing authority’s intent to suspend, revoke, or deny issuance or renewal of a license under this chapter. The suspension, revocation, or denial shall be effective no sooner than thirty days following provision of notice to the person. The notice shall state all of the following: (1) The licensing authority intends to suspend, revoke, or deny issuance or renewal of a person’s license due to the receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the unit. (2) The person must contact the unit to schedule a conference or to otherwise obtain a withdrawal of a certificate of noncompliance. (3) Unless the unit furnishes a withdrawal of a certificate of noncompliance to the licensing authority within thirty days of the issuance of the notice under this section, the person’s license will be revoked, suspended, or denied. (4) If the licensing authority’s rules and procedures conflict with the additional requirements of this section, the requirements of this section shall apply. Notwithstanding section 17A.18, the person does not have a right to a hearing before the licensing authority to contest the authority’s actions under this chapter but may request a court hearing pursuant to section 272D.9 within thirty days of the provision of notice under this section. 5. If the licensing authority receives a withdrawal of a certificate of noncompliance from the unit, the licensing authority shall immediately reinstate, renew, or issue a license if the person is otherwise in compliance with licensing requirements established by the licensing authority. 2008 Acts, ch 1172, §14 Referred to in §272D.7, 272D.9 Thu Dec 11 19:26:26 2025 Iowa Code 2026, Section 272D.8 (17, 0)
