58-3041.   Restricted license. (a) The commission may at any time issue a restricted license to a person:

      (1)   Who is or has been licensed but who has been found by the commission after a hearing, held in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act, to have violated any provision of this act or rules and regulations adopted hereunder;

      (2)   who is applying for an original license under this act and has met the examination and experience requirements but has been found by the commission after a hearing, held in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act, to have failed to make a satisfactory showing that such person meets all other applicable requirements; or

      (3)   who is applying for an original license as a broker under this act but whose activities or experience and education, pursuant to subsection (c) of K.S.A. 58-3039 and amendments thereto, have been found by the commission after a hearing, held in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act, to have been limited to a specialized activity or particular type of transaction, thereby justifying restriction of the license to the specialized activity or type of transaction.

      (1)   By term;

      (2)   to employment by or association with a particular broker as an independent contractor;

      (3)   to a particular type of transaction; or

      (4)   by other conditions deemed advisable by the commission, including the filing of a surety bond in such amount as may be required by the commission for the protection of persons with whom the licensee may deal.

      (c)   The holder of a restricted license shall not be entitled to automatic renewal of such license, such renewal being in the discretion of the commission.
