Section 20-289. Complaints

a.  The commissioner may take testimony, under
  oath, relating to and upon the complaint of any person who claims he  or
  she  has  been  defrauded  by any auctioneer, his or her clerk, agent or
  assignee, or relating to and upon the complaint of any  person  who  has
  consigned real or personal property for sale and to whom such auctioneer
  shall  not have accounted fully. The license of each such auctioneer may
  be revoked and his or her bond declared forfeited if, in the opinion  of

  license has been revoked for cause shall not  be  granted  another  such
  license.
    b.  The  commissioner  may take testimony, under oath, relating to and
  upon the complaint of any person who claims that any auctioneer, his  or
  her  clerk, agent or assignee, has been guilty of misconduct relating to
  the business transacted under such auctioneer's  license,  and  if  such
  charge,  in his or her opinion, shall be sustained, the commissioner may
  suspend such license for a period not to exceed six months.
