1. Relicensing. The superintendent may not issue a license under this Title to a person whose license has been revoked until at least one year has expired from the effective date of that revocation. If the licensee pursues an appeal from the superintendent’s decision, the superintendent may not consider issuance of a new license until at least one year from the date of a final court order affirming that revocation. The license applicant shall reestablish qualification for the license in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Title. The superintendent may refuse any such new license applications unless the applicant shows good cause why the prior revocation should not be deemed a bar to the issuance of a new license.
