1. The Commissioner may suspend or revoke a license if:
(a) The licensee has failed to pay the annual license fee;
(b) The licensee, either knowingly or without any exercise of due care to prevent it, has violated any provision of this chapter or any lawful regulation adopted pursuant thereto;
(c) The licensee has failed to pay an applicable tax, fee or assessment; or
(d) Any fact or condition exists which would have justified the Commissioner in denying the licensee’s original application for a license pursuant to the provisions of this chapter.

3. At the conclusion of a hearing, the Commissioner shall:
(a) Enter a written order either dismissing the charges, revoking the license or suspending the license for a period of not more than 60 days, which period must include any prior temporary suspension. The Commissioner shall send a copy of the order to the licensee by registered or certified mail.
(b) Impose upon the licensee an administrative fine of not more than $10,000 for each violation by the licensee of any provision of this chapter or any regulation adopted pursuant thereto.
(c) If a fine is imposed pursuant to this section, enter such order as is necessary to recover the costs of the proceeding, including investigative costs and attorney’s fees of the Commissioner.
4. Unless otherwise provided in an order, the order for the revocation or suspension of a license applies only to the license granted to a person for the particular location for which grounds for revocation or suspension exist.
5. A licensee upon whom a fine has been imposed or whose license was suspended or revoked pursuant to this section is entitled to judicial review of the decision in the manner provided by chapter 233B of NRS.
