(a) The cancellation or acceptance of a surrender of a license entails the loss of the privilege conferred by the license and entails the acceptance of or the seizure by the Commissioner of any marijuana or marijuana products found in the possession of the licensee, except those which occur solely by reason of the death of the licensee.
(b) Notice of the order of the cancellation or acceptance of the surrender of a license may be served by an officer designated by the Commissioner: by affixing a duplicate thereof to the outside of the entrance door of the licensed premises; by leaving a duplicate with the holder of the license, or with any member of the family of the holder over the age of 18 years at the residence of the holder; or otherwise as in the judgment of the Commissioner will give notice of such cancellation or acceptance of the surrender. All cancellations or acceptances of surrender of a license take effect as soon as the order is served.
(c) The cancellation or acceptance of surrender of a license does not prevent the filing of any criminal proceedings for any offense against the licensee while the license was in force. No conviction obtained for any offense prevents the Commissioner from cancelling a license or from making at the same time a seizure of marijuana or marijuana products as provided in this title.
(d) The Commissioner shall adopt regulations for seizure of marijuana and marijuana products that preserves and does not destroy the marijuana or marijuana products.
