91.11 PROSECUTIONS FOR VIOLATIONS.
If the commissioner learns of any violation of any law
administered by the division, the commissioner may give the county
attorney of the county in which the violation occurred written notice
of the facts, whereupon that officer shall institute the proper
proceedings against the person charged with the offense.
If the commissioner is of the opinion that the violation is not
willful, or is an oversight or of a trivial nature, the commissioner
may at the commissioner's discretion fix a time within which the
violation shall be corrected and notify the owner, operator,
superintendent, or person in charge, and if corrected within the time
fixed, then the commissioner shall not cause prosecution to be begun.
