Section 10-2-410 - Temporary licensing
(1) The commissioner may issue a temporary license to an individual to act as an insurance producer for a period not to exceed one hundred eighty days, without requiring an examination, if the commissioner deems that such temporary license authority is necessary for the servicing of an insurance business in the following cases:
(a) To the surviving spouse or next of kin, or to the executor or an employee, of a licensed insurance producer who becomes deceased;
(b) To the surviving spouse or next of kin, or to an employee or the legal guardian, of a licensed insurance producer who becomes disabled;
(c) To a member, employee, or officer of a licensed insurance agency or business entity, licensed as an insurance producer upon the death or disability of an individual designated in or registered as to the agency or business entity license;
(d) To the designee of a licensed insurance producer upon entering active service in the armed forces of the United States;
(e) To any person in any other circumstance where the commissioner deems that the public interest will best be served by the issuance of such license.
(2) The commissioner may, by order, limit the authority of any temporary licensee in any way deemed necessary to protect insureds and the public. The commissioner may require the temporary licensee to have a suitable sponsor who is a licensed producer or insurer and who assumes responsibility for all acts of the temporary licensee. The commissioner may impose other requirements designed to protect insureds and the public. The commissioner may, by order, revoke a temporary license if the interest of insureds or the public are endangered. A temporary license may not continue after the owner or the personal representative disposes of the business.
