(A) If a court, pursuant to an action brought under section 4151.05 of the Revised Code, determines that a nonresidential construction contractor, subcontractor, or labor broker has knowingly employed an unauthorized alien, the court shall order each appropriate agency to permanently revoke any license issued by the agency and held by the nonresidential construction contractor, subcontractor, or labor broker specific to the business location where the unauthorized alien performed work. If the nonresidential construction contractor, subcontractor, or labor broker does not hold a license specific to the business location where the unauthorized alien performed work, but a license is necessary to operate the nonresidential construction contractor's, subcontractor's, or labor broker's business in general, the court shall order the appropriate agency to permanently revoke all licenses issued by that agency that are held by the nonresidential construction contractor, subcontractor, or labor broker at the nonresidential construction contractor's, subcontractor's, or labor broker's primary place of business. On receipt of the order and notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the appropriate agency immediately shall revoke the licenses.
(B) For purposes of determining whether an employee is an unauthorized alien, a court shall consider only a determination with respect to that alien's immigration status made by the federal government pursuant to the federal “Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act, 1997,” 8 U.S.C. 1373(c). The federal government's determination creates a rebuttable presumption of the alien's lawful status. The court may take judicial notice of the federal government's determination and may request the federal government to provide automated or testimonial verification pursuant to the federal “Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act, 1997,” 8 U.S.C. 1373(c).
