Latest version.
  • (a) Every pleading issued by the commissioner to initiate a formal enforcement action against a licensee under this code, and every order issued by the commissioner or a court of competent jurisdiction or other document that resolves a formal enforcement action, shall be displayed on the department's internet web site, if the document is a public record that is not exempt from disclosure to the public pursuant to the California Public Records Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 6250) of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code).

    (b) Notwithstanding Section 12969, if an enforcement action against a licensee is withdrawn, then each pleading, document, or order against that licensee shall be removed from the department's Internet Web site within 30 days of the withdrawal of the action. If a pleading, document, or order contains allegations against multiple licensees, and the department withdraws all allegations against any one or more of the licensees, then the department shall post, on its Internet Web site, a statement in the previously posted pleading, document, or order that clarifies that the enforcement action against that specific licensee has been withdrawn.
