The commissioner may issue a debt clearance certificate only if:
(1) the licensee has fully paid any amounts due under this chapter or section 116L.20; or
(2) the licensee has entered into an agreement to pay the total amount due and is current with all the terms of that agreement.
Subd. 3.Definition.
For the purposes of this section, “licensee” means:
(1) an individual if the license is issued to or in the name of an individual, or the corporation, limited liability company, or partnership if the license is issued to or in the name of a corporation, limited liability company, or partnership; or
(2) an officer of a corporation, manager of a limited liability company, or a member of a partnership, or an individual who is liable for amounts due under this chapter or section 116L.20, either for the entity that the license is at issue or for another entity that the liability was incurred, or personally as a licensee. “Licensee” includes both the transferor and the transferee of the license and any holder of a license.
Subd. 4.Determination and right to hearing.
At least 30 calendar days before the commissioner notifies a licensing authority, a determination of action under this section must be sent to the licensee by mail or electronic transmission. If the licensee disputes the action, the licensee must appeal within 45 calendar days after the sending of the determination to the licensee. The only issue on any appeal is whether the commissioner has complied with the requirements of this section. Proceedings on the appeal are conducted in accordance with section 268.105.
