(a)
(1)
If, after an order has been served pursuant to Section 27504, a request for hearing is filed in writing within 30 days of the date of service of the order on the covered entity, a hearing shall be conducted in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code), and the commissioner shall have all of the powers granted under that chapter.
(2)
If a covered entity fails to file a written request for a hearing within 30 days from the date of service of the order, the order shall be deemed a final order of the commissioner and is not subject to review by any court or agency, notwithstanding subdivision (b).
(b)
Every final order, decision, or other official act of the commissioner is subject to judicial review in accordance with law.
(c)
The commissioner may file a certified copy of the final order with the clerk of the superior court or any court of competent jurisdiction. The final order filed has the same effect as a judgment of the court and may be recorded, enforced, or satisfied in the same manner as a judgment of the court.
(d)
(1)
If a covered entity does not comply with an order under this chapter, the commissioner may petition the superior court or any court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the order.
(2)
The court shall not require the commissioner to post a bond in an action or proceeding under this chapter.
(3)
If the court finds, after service and opportunity for hearing, that the covered entity was not in compliance with the order, the court may adjudge the covered entity in civil contempt of the order. The court may impose a further civil penalty against the covered entity for contempt and may grant any other relief the court determines is just and proper under the circumstances.
(e)
When a covered entity, including a nonresident of this state, engages in conduct prohibited or made actionable by this chapter or any rule or order pursuant to this chapter, whether or not the covered entity has filed a consent to service of process, and personal jurisdiction over the covered entity cannot otherwise be obtained in this state, that conduct shall be considered equivalent to the covered entity’s appointment of the commissioner or the commissioner’s successor in office to be the covered
entity’s attorney to receive service of any lawful process in any noncriminal suit, action, or proceeding against the covered entity or the covered entity’s successor, executor, or administrator that grows out of that conduct and that is brought under this chapter or any rule or order pursuant to this chapter, with the same force and validity as if served on the covered entity personally. Service may be made by leaving a copy of the process in the office of the commissioner, but it is not in effect unless the following conditions are met:
(1)
The plaintiff, who may be the commissioner in a suit, action, or proceeding instituted by commissioner, sends notice of the service and a copy of the process by registered or certified mail to the covered entity at the covered entity’s last known address or take other steps that are reasonably calculated to give actual notice.
(2)
The
plaintiff’s affidavit of compliance with this chapter is filed in the case on or before the return day of the process, if any, or within such further time as the court allows.
