§907. Issuance of registration certificates
A. The commissioner shall issue the registration certificate immediately upon receipt of the application unless the application fails to comply with R.S. 26:906. For a period of thirty-five days after issuance, during which time the commissioner shall conduct a proper investigation, the registration certificate holder shall operate on a probationary basis subject to final action on or withholding of the registration certificate as hereinafter provided.
B. The commissioner shall investigate all applications for a registration certificate and shall withhold the issuance of the registration certificate where that action is justified under this Chapter. The decision to withhold the registration certificate shall be made within thirty-five calendar days of the filing of the application. Any intentional misstatement or suppression of a material fact in an application shall constitute grounds for denial of the registration certificate.
C. Within five calendar days of the decision to withhold the registration certificate, the commissioner shall notify the applicant in writing of his decision and shall assign the reasons therefor. Such notice shall be either delivered to the applicant in person or sent to him by registered mail at the business address given in his last application. When so addressed and mailed, the notice shall be presumed to have been received by the applicant.
