Section 82.12 - Change of ownership, name or location

(a) If an individual owner of a registered repair shop dies or is adjudged mentally incompetent, his estate or his committee may carry on the business. Notification to the commissioner must be made within 30 days.

(b) If a certificate of registration shall be issued in the names of two or more persons as partners and a change occurs in the membership of such partnership, the certificates of registration shall not expire thereupon so long as any one of the persons named in such certificate is a member of the partnership or carries on the business of the partnership as a surviving member of the partnership; provided, however, that when any such change occurs and the certificate of registration does not expire, the partners or surviving member after such change shall forthwith file with the commissioner (1) a statement regarding the change indicating who is carrying on the business, or, where the change involves the addition of one or more new partners, (2) a new application as provided, together with a fee of $5. Such new certificate of registration shall expire on the expiration date of the one replaced. Notification to the commissioner must be made within 30 days.

(c) A corporation shall notify the commissioner of any change in its officers, stockholders who hold more than 10 percent of the outstanding shares, or directors. Notification to the commissioner must be made within 30 days.

(d) When a motor vehicle repair shop changes its location, notification thereof shall be given to the commissioner not more than 30 days therefrom.

(e) If the business name of a registered repair shop is changed, or if the owners of a registered repair shop incorporate such business, but the change of name or incorporation creates no change in the actual ownership and operation of said repair shop, notification shall be given to the commissioner not more than 30 days therefrom. The commissioner shall treat such change of name or incorporation as an amendment and charge a filing fee of $5. Any change of name or incorporation which changes the ownership or operation of a repair shop shall be considered as a new repair shop and all requirements of a new repair shop shall be met.
