If no appearance is made at the scheduled hearing by the foreign bank or the foreign bank's authorized representative, the foreign bank shall be deemed to have consented to the issuance of the final suspension or revocation order. Any appeal of a final order of suspension or revocation shall be made to the circuit court in accordance with chapter 91.(e) Any order of immediate suspension or revocation may be enforced in the circuit court upon application by the commissioner.
