Whenever it appears to the commissioner, either upon complaint or otherwise, that any foreign insurance company is in violation of section 26.1-02-23 or 26.1-11-08, the commissioner may issue a temporary order suspending the certificate of authority granted to a foreign insurance company if the commissioner deems it necessary or appropriate to the public interest to do so. Any company aggrieved by a temporary order may request a hearing before the commissioner within ten days after the company receives the order. If the commissioner revokes the certificate of authority granted to a foreign insurance company, the commissioner shall publish a notice of revocation once each week for three successive weeks in a newspaper published at the state capital. Thereafter, no new business may be done by the company, or by its agents, in this state until its certificate of authority is restored by the commissioner. The commissioner, after a hearing and for good cause, may cancel the revocation and restore the certificate.
