(a) The commissioner may suspend, not to exceed six (6) months, or revoke a license if the commissioner finds:
(i) Any fact or condition exists that, if it had existed at the time when the licensee applied for its license, would have been grounds for denying the application;
(ii) The licensee violated any provision of this act or any rule or order validly promulgated by the commissioner;
(iii) The licensee is conducting its business in an unsafe or unsound manner;
(iv) The licensee refuses to permit the commissioner to make any examination authorized by this act;
(v) The licensee willfully fails to make any report required by this act;
(vi) The competence, experience, character or general fitness of the licensee indicates that it is not in the public interest to permit the licensee to continue to conduct business;
(vii) The bond of the licensee has been revoked, cancelled, expired or otherwise is not effective;
(viii) The licensee or any partner, officer, director, manager or employee of the licensee has been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor involving any aspect of the mortgage lending business, breach of trust, or fraudulent or dishonest dealing;
(ix) The licensee or any partner, officer, director, manager or employee of the licensee has had a license substantially equivalent to a license under this act, and issued by another state, denied, revoked or suspended under the laws of that state;
(x) The licensee has filed an application for a license which as of the date the license was issued, or as of the date of an order denying, suspending or revoking a license, was incomplete in any material respect or contained any statement that was, in light of the circumstances under which it was made, false or misleading with respect to any material fact.
(b) Notwithstanding any provision of the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act, if the commissioner finds that probable cause for revocation of a license exists and that enforcement of this act and the public interest require immediate suspension of the license pending investigation, he may, after a hearing upon five (5) days written notice, enter an order suspending the license for not more than thirty (30) days.
(c) The commissioner may, in his discretion, reinstate a license, terminate a suspension or grant a new license to a person whose license has been revoked or suspended if no fact or condition then exists which clearly would justify the commissioner in refusing to grant a license.
(d) For purposes of this section, “licensee” shall also mean a licensed mortgage loan originator pursuant to W.S. 40-23-124.
