(a) If the secretary of state determines that a person has engaged in or is engaging in an act, practice, or course of business constituting a violation of this part or a rule adopted or order issued under this part, or that a person has materially aided or is materially aiding in an act, practice, or course of business constituting a violation of this part or a rule adopted or order issued under this part, the secretary of state or the secretary's designee may:

(1) Issue an order directing the person to cease and desist from engaging in the act, practice, or course of business, or to take other action necessary or appropriate to comply with this part or any rule or order promulgated under this part;

(2) Issue an order imposing an administrative penalty against an athlete agent who violated this part or any rule or order promulgated under this part; and

(3) Take any other action permitted under this part.

(b) An order issued under subdivision (a)(1) is effective on the date of issuance by the secretary. Upon issuance of the order, the secretary of state or the secretary's designee shall promptly serve each person subject to the order with a copy of the order and a notice that the order has been entered. The order must include a statement of any civil penalty or other administrative remedy to be imposed under subdivision (a)(1), a statement of the costs of investigation the secretary of state will seek to recover, a statement of the reasons for the order, and a statement notifying the person of such person's right to a hearing under § 49-7-2107. If a person subject to the order does not request in writing a hearing within thirty (30) days of the date the order is issued and a hearing is not ordered by the hearing officer, the order, including the imposition of a civil penalty or requirement for payment of the costs of investigation, shall become final as to that person by operation of law.

(c) In a final order, the secretary of state or the secretary's designee may charge the actual cost of an investigation or proceeding for a violation of this part or a rule adopted or order issued under this part.

(d) If a petition for judicial review of a final order is not filed in accordance with the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5, or the petition is denied by the court, the secretary of state or the secretary's designee may file a certified copy of the final order with the clerk of a court in the jurisdiction where enforcement will be sought. The order so 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.

(e) If a person does not comply with an order issued under this section, the secretary of state or the secretary's designee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the order and collect administrative civil penalties and costs imposed under the final order. The court shall not require the secretary of state to post a bond in an action or proceeding under this section. If the court finds, after service and opportunity for hearing, that the person was not in compliance with the order, the court may adjudge the person in civil contempt of the order. The court may grant any relief the court determines is just and proper in the circumstances.
