§ 701 Insurer Certificate Revocation Rules
This law says an insurer’s permission to operate (certificate of authority) lasts forever unless the insurer goes out of business or breaks state rules, in which case the state can cancel it after giving the insurer 30 days to fix the problem.
An insurance company forgets to pay its state taxes. The commissioner notifies the company and gives it 30 days to pay. If the company does not pay within those 30 days, the state can revoke its permission to do business.
Because the insurer is behind on taxes (a fee the state requires), the commissioner can order it to pay within 30 days. If it doesn’t, the certificate of authority is revoked unless a court stops the revocation.
