36-6-507. Denial, suspension or revocation of a license.

(a)  Notwithstanding any other law, rule or regulation to the contrary, the certification from the court under § 36-6-506 shall be a basis for the denial, suspension or revocation of a license, or for refusal to issue, renew, or reinstate a license by a licensing authority.

(b)  The licensing authority shall notify, without undue delay, by regular mail, a parent certified from the court under § 36-6-506, that the parent's application for the issuance, renewal or reinstatement of a license has been denied or that the parent's current license has been suspended or revoked because the parent's name has been certified by the court as a parent who is not in compliance with an order of visitation.

(c)  A notice of suspension shall specify the reason and statutory grounds for the suspension and the effective date of the suspension and may include any other notices prescribed by the licensing authority. The notice shall also inform the individual that in order to apply for issuance, renewal or reinstatement of the license, the individual shall obtain a release from the court in accordance with § 36-6-508.

(d)  If a licensing authority fails to deny, suspend or revoke a license when so ordered by a court pursuant to this part, the other parent may petition the court to compel the authority's compliance.

(e)  A notice to the individual by the licensing authority to revoke, deny, suspend, or refuse to renew or reinstate a license after receipt of the court certification under this section shall not be appealable under title 4, chapter 5, part 3 of the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act.
