Ohio § 3931.11

§ 3931.11.

Every attorney shall certify to the superintendent of insurance the names and addresses

of the attorney's traveling full time salaried non-commission employees, primarily

engaged in performing underwriting, loss prevention engineering and claim services,

authorized by the attorney to solicit powers of attorney or applications for contracts

of indemnity specified in section 3931.01 of the Revised Code .  The authority of such persons shall continue until the first day of the next April,

unless it is cancelled by the attorney and the certificate of such cancellation is

filed with the superintendent, or unless the license of the attorney or authority

of such person is revoked or suspended by the superintendent.  Expiring certificates of authority of such persons may be renewed in like manner

to continue until the first day of the next April.  The superintendent shall record the names and addresses of such persons so that

their names may conveniently be inspected and shall thereupon certify and deliver

to the attorney a list of the names of all persons so recorded. If the superintendent finds that any such person has willfully violated, or failed

to comply with, sections 3931.01 to 3931.12 of the Revised Code , or has been convicted of a felony in the United States, or in this or any state,

or has been guilty of any act or acts that if performed by an agent licensed under

Chapter 3905. of the Revised Code would constitute statutory grounds for the revocation

of the agent's license, the superintendent may refuse or revoke the authority of the

person and cancel the person's name on the superintendent's records, and the superintendent

shall thereupon notify the person and the attorney of the revocation.  Thereafter the person shall not act as representative of any attorney until a new

certificate of authority by the attorney thereafter appointing the person is filed

with and approved by the superintendent. No such person shall act for any attorney in placing insurance or making such contracts

of indemnity, unless the attorney has the license required by section 3931.10 of the Revised Code , nor unless the unexpired, unrevoked, and unsuspended certificate of the person's

authority is filed with the superintendent.  Any such person shall be individually liable on any contract of indemnity made,

issued, or accepted through that person as representing any attorney who is not licensed

by the superintendent to make such contracts of indemnity.
