Section 507B.6A - Summary orders1. Upon a determination by the commissioner that a person or insurer has engaged, is engaging, or is about to engage in any act or practice constituting a violation of this chapter or a rule adopted or order issued under this chapter, the commissioner may issue a summary order, including a brief statement of findings of fact, conclusions of law, and policy reasons for the decision, and directing the person or insurer to cease and desist from engaging in the act or practice or to take other affirmative action as is in the judgment of the commissioner necessary to comply with the requirements of this chapter.2. A person who has been issued a summary order under this section may contest the order by filing a request for a contested case proceeding and hearing as provided in chapter 17A and in accordance with the rules adopted by the commissioner. However, the person shall have at least thirty days from the date that the order is issued in order to file the request. Section 17A.18A is inapplicable to a summary order issued under this section. The order shall remain effective from the date of issuance unless overturned by a presiding officer or court following a request for hearing. If a hearing is not timely requested, the summary order becomes final by operation of law.3. A person or insurer violating a summary order issued under this section shall be deemed in contempt of that order. The commissioner may petition the district court to enforce the order as certified by the commissioner. The district court shall adjudge the person in contempt of the order if the court finds after hearing that the person or insurer is not in compliance with the order. The court may assess a civil penalty against the person or insurer and may issue further orders as it deems appropriate.Referred to in §505.8, 507B.7A, 508E.7
