(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2022)
Sec. 65. Licensed recovery manager in control of repossession agency.
(a) As a condition of licensure, a licensed recovery manager must, at all times, be in control or management of the repossession agency. Each licensed repossession agency and licensed branch office location must have a licensed recovery manager.
(b) A licensed recovery manager may only be in control of one repossession agency or branch office location at one time. Upon written request by a representative of an agency within 10 days after the loss of the licensed recovery manager in control due to the death of the license holder or because of an unanticipated termination of his or her employment, the Commission shall issue a temporary permit allowing the continuing operation of a previously licensed repossession agency. The temporary permit shall be valid for no more than 90 days. Upon written request by the representative of the agency, an extension of an additional 90 days may be granted by the Commission for good cause shown. No more than 2 extensions may be granted to any repossession agency. A temporary permit may not be issued for loss of the licensed recovery manager in control or management if that loss is due to disciplinary action taken by the Commission.
(c) Whenever a licensed recovery manager in control or management of a repossession agency ceases to be in control or management, the licensed agency shall file notice with the Commission within 30 days after the cessation. If the repossession agency fails to give written notice at the end of the 30-day period, then the agency's license shall automatically be suspended. If the notice is filed, then the license shall remain in force for a period of 90 days after the filing of the notice. At the end of the 90-day period or an additional period, not to exceed one year, as specified by the Commission, if written notice is not given that a licensed recovery manager is then in control or management of the agency, then the agency's license shall automatically be suspended. A license suspended under this Section may be reinstated upon payment of a reinstatement fee, to be determined by the Commission, and submission of a reinstatement application.
(d) Except as otherwise provided in this Act, no person may serve as the licensed recovery manager in control or management of a licensed repossession agency if that person has ever had a repossession agency's license revoked or if the person was a partner, managing employee, owner, or officer of a repossession agency the license of which has been revoked for cause.
(e) The license of the recovery manager in control or management of a licensed repossession agency, together with the agency's license, shall be conspicuously displayed at the agency location of which the recovery manager is in control or management.
(f) A license extended under this Section is subject to all other provisions of this Act.
