§ 11933 License Suspension For Unpaid Judgments

This law lets the director stop an operator’s license if the operator hasn’t paid a court judgment within 30 days after the director gets proof of the judgment.

Key Takeaways

  • •The director can suspend any operator’s license.
  • •Suspension happens after the director gets a copy of the judgment and a certificate of facts.
  • •The operator has 30 days to pay the judgment; if they don’t, the license is suspended.

Example

A food truck owner is sued and a court orders him to pay $3,000. The director receives the court’s judgment and a certificate showing the case details. The owner still hasn’t paid after 30 days.

Because the owner didn’t pay the judgment in time, the director can suspend the food truck’s license, meaning the truck can’t operate until the debt is settled.
