If an application for a license is made by a person whose license has been denied, suspended, or revoked as a result of disciplinary action for violation of this article or of the rules promulgated under this article, the department may require as a condition precedent to the issuance of a license to the applicant or the removal of suspension, that the applicant file or have on file with the department a bond for a period not to exceed 5 years, issued by an admitted surety insurer or cash in a sum to be fixed by the department, based upon the magnitude of the operations of the applicant, not to exceed the sum of $5,000.00 in which this state shall appear as the insured. If the department orders the filing of a bond or the posting of a cash deposit, a person injured by an unlawful act or omission of the applicant may bring an action in a proper court on the bond or a claim against the cash deposit for the amount of the damage suffered as a result to the extent covered by the bond or cash deposit.
