Any sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, or disposition regulated by R.S. 27:68 that takes place after the filing of a notice of lis pendens shall render the party to whom the sale, assignment, transfer, pledge, or disposition is made responsible for any sanction subsequently imposed upon the licensee based upon the conduct described in the notice of lis pendens.
C. If, after a hearing, there is a determination that the grounds for the lis pendens do not exist, the lis pendens shall be canceled and be of no further effect.
