If the registrant learns that the broker-dealer, issuer, investment adviser, or federal covered investment adviser has not filed the notice, the registrant may do so.(b) If an agent registered under this article terminates employment by or association with a broker-dealer registered under this article and begins employment by or association with another broker-dealer registered under this article, or if an investment adviser representative registered under this article terminates employment by or association with an investment adviser registered under this article or a federal covered investment adviser that has filed a notice under section 5 of this chapter and begins employment by or association with another investment adviser registered under this article or a federal covered investment adviser that has filed a notice under section 5 of this chapter, then upon the filing by or on behalf of the registrant, within thirty (30) days after the termination, of an application for registration that complies with the requirement of section 6(a) of this chapter and payment of the filing fee required under section 10 of this chapter, the registration of the agent or investment adviser representative is:(1) immediately effective as of the date of the completed filing, if the agent's Central Registration Depository record or successor record or the investment adviser representative's Investment Adviser Registration Depository record or successor record does not contain a new or amended disciplinary disclosure within the previous twelve (12) months; or(2) temporarily effective as of the date of the completed filing, if the agent's Central Registration Depository record or successor record or the investment adviser representative's Investment Adviser Registration Depository record or successor record contains a new or amended disciplinary disclosure within the preceding twelve (12) months.(c) The commissioner may withdraw a temporary registration if there are or were grounds for discipline as specified in section 12 of this chapter and the commissioner does so within thirty (30) days after the filing of the application. If the commissioner does not withdraw the temporary registration within the thirty (30) day period, registration becomes automatically effective on the thirty-first day after filing.(d) The commissioner may prevent or suspend the effectiveness of a transfer of an agent or investment adviser representative under subsection (b)(1) or (b)(2) based on the public interest and the protection of investors. The commissioner, by order, may also extend a temporary registration to permit further time to review the qualifications of an applicant.(e) If the commissioner determines that a registrant or applicant for registration is no longer in existence or has ceased to act as a broker-dealer, agent, investment adviser, or investment adviser representative, or is the subject of an adjudication of incapacity or is subject to the control of a committee, conservator, or guardian, or cannot reasonably be located, a rule adopted or order issued under this article may require the registration be canceled or terminated or the application denied. The commissioner may reinstate a canceled or terminated registration, with or without hearing, and may make the registration retroactive.As added by P.L. 27-2007, SEC.23.
