Florida Statutes Title XXXIII. Regulation of Trade, Commerce, Investments, and Solicitations § 552.171. Suspension or revocation of license or permit

(1) The violation, by any person possessed of a license or permit as provided in s. 552.091, of any provision of this chapter or any rule or regulation adopted pursuant thereto or of a cease and desist order shall be cause for revocation or suspension of such license or permit by the division after it shall determine said person guilty of such violation.

(2) If the division should find said violation proved, it shall enter its order suspending or revoking the license or permit of the person charged. An order of suspension shall state the period of time of such suspension, which period shall not be in excess of 2 years from the date of such order. An order of revocation may be entered for a period not exceeding 5 years, and such order shall effect the revocation of all licenses or permits then held by said person, and during such period of time no license or permit shall be issued to said person. If during the period between the beginning of proceedings and entry of an order of suspension or revocation by the division a new license or permit has been issued the person so charged, any order of suspension or revocation shall operate effectively with respect to said new license or permit held by such person.

(3) The provisions of this section are cumulative and shall not affect the penalty and injunctive provisions of ss. 552.22 and 552.23.
