(a) A surety may terminate an appointment of a surety bail agent at any time. The surety shall promptly give written notice of termination and the effective date thereof to the Department, on forms approved by the Department and to the surety bail agent if reasonably possible. The Department may require the surety to provide reasonable proof that the surety has also given such a notice to the surety bail agent unless there are valid reasons why such notice can or should not be given by the surety.
(b) Accompanying each notice of termination given to the Department, the surety shall file a statement of the cause, if any, for the termination. Any information or documents so disclosed to the Department shall be deemed a confidential document, disclosure of which shall be governed by the provisions of § 1716(f) of this title.
(c) No agreement between a surety and a surety bail agent or between an employing bail agent and a licensed bail agent shall affect the Department’s termination of the appointment or license if the termination is requested by the insurer or the employing bail agent.
(d) The Department shall notify the courts upon the termination, suspension or revocation of a bail license.
(e) A bail agent’s license that is otherwise in good standing with the Department shall be immediately suspended and be subject to revocation by the Department upon notice from a court that the bail agent has been struck from the list of approved bail agents by the court or courts.
