  • The special plates and license provided for in this chapter shall be automatically canceled if any of the following occurs:

    (a) The abandonment of the established place of business of the automobile dismantler or the change thereof without notice to the department pursuant to Section 11513.

    (b) The voluntary or involuntary surrender for any cause by the licensee of the special plates and license, except that a surrender of the special plates and license, the cessation of business by the licensee, or the suspension or revocation of the corporate status of the licensee, does not preclude the filing of an accusation for revocation or suspension of the surrendered license as provided in Section 11509, and does not affect the department's decision to suspend or revoke the license. The department's decision to suspend or revoke the license may be considered in issuing or refusing to issue any subsequent license authorized by this division to that licensee or any business representative of that licensee.

    (c) When the person designated as the licensee has changed, except that the special plates issued to the original licensee may be transferred upon application as provided in Section 11501 and the newly designated licensee, as transferee, shall succeed to the privileges evidenced by the plates until their expiration.

    (d) The suspension or revocation of the corporate status of the licensee.

    (e) The suspension or revocation of the seller's permit of the licensee by the State Board of Equalization.
