§ 67-3-39. Judicial revocation or suspension of permit; jurisdiction of courts is not exclusive.
 

The jurisdiction conferred upon the circuit and county courts to hear and determine complaints for the revocation or suspension of permits shall not be exclusive and any authority conferred on the commissioner to revoke or suspend licenses shall remain in full force and effect, and the commissioner shall have authority to revoke or suspend permits for a violation of Section 67-3-53 in the manner provided in subsection (2) of Section 67-3-29 for the revocation of permits. However, when a complaint is filed with the court any proceedings which may then be pending before the commissioner against the same permittee on the same charges shall abate and no proceedings for the revocation or suspension of a permit for a violation of the provisions of Section 67-3-53 shall be filed with the commissioner when proceedings are pending before the court against the permittee on the same charges. The revocation or suspension of a permittee's state permit by the court or by the commissioner shall automatically revoke or suspend any municipal license or permit held by such person. The revocation or suspension of a permittee's permit shall be in addition to and not in lieu of or limitation of any other penalty imposed by law.
