Sec. 48. (a) Sixty (60) days after making a written request for release to the commissioner, the surety of a bond furnished by a licensee is released from any liability to the state accruing on the bond after the sixty (60) day period. The release does not affect any liability accruing before the expiration of the sixty (60) day period.
(b) The commissioner shall promptly notify the licensee furnishing the bond that a release has been requested. Unless the licensee obtains a new bond that meets the requirements of this chapter and files with the commissioner the new bond within the sixty (60) day period, the commissioner shall cancel the license.
(c) Sixty (60) days after making a written request for release to the commissioner, the cash deposit provided by a licensee is canceled as security for any obligation accruing after the expiration of the sixty (60) day period. However, the commissioner may retain all or part of the cash deposit for up to three (3) years and one (1) day as security for any obligations accruing before the effective date of the cancellation. Any part of the deposit that is not retained by the commissioner shall be released to the licensee. Before the expiration of the sixty (60) day period, the licensee must provide the commissioner with a bond that satisfies the requirements of this chapter or the commissioner shall cancel the license.
