2127 - Hearings.

 
    § 2127. Hearings.  A  person aggrieved by an act or omission to act of
  the commissioner under this  article  is  entitled  to  a  hearing.  The
  commissioner  shall  grant a hearing to an applicant therefor as soon as
  practicable, except that  if  a  certificate  of  title  is  temporarily
  suspended,  within  ten days after receipt of a written request for such
  hearing.  No hearing shall be required because of  the  refusal  of  the
  commissioner  to  issue  a  certificate  of  title  in  a case where the
  commissioner determines that a request for such hearing is frivolous  or
  based upon sham. The applicant may be heard in person or by counsel. The
  hearing  shall  be  at  such  time  and  place as the commissioner shall
  prescribe. The commissioner acting by such  officer  or  person  in  the
  department  of  motor vehicles as he may designate, shall have the power
  to temporarily omit to take any action  under  this  article  pending  a
  hearing  and  to  subpoena  and  bring  before  the officer or person so
  designated any person in this state and administer an oath to  and  take
  testimony  of  any  person  or cause his deposition to be taken with the
  same fees and mileage in  the  same  manner  as  prescribed  by  law  in
  judicial procedure in courts of this state in civil cases.
