Item 1

 
6.__Filing of certified final order with court; effect of
filing.__If a petition for judicial review of a final order is
not filed in accordance with section 16609, the administrator may
file a certified copy of the final order with the clerk of a
court of competent jurisdiction. 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.

 
7.__Enforcement by court; further civil fine.__If a person
does not comply with an order under this section, the
administrator may request that the Attorney General petition a
court of competent jurisdiction to enforce the order. The court
may not require the administrator 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
contempt of the order. The court may impose a further civil fine
against the person for contempt in an amount not to exceed
$10,000 per violation and may grant any other relief the court
determines is just and proper in the circumstances.

 
8.__Appointment of presiding officer.__For purposes of any
hearing conducted pursuant to this section, the administrator may
appoint a qualified person to preside at the hearing and to make
proposed findings of fact and conclusions of law. The
responsibility for the entry of the final findings of fact and
conclusions of law and for the issuance of any final order remain
with the administrator.

 
§16605.__Rules, forms, orders, interpretative opinions and

 
hearings

 
1.__Issuance and adoption of forms, orders and rules.__In
addition to specific authority granted elsewhere in this chapter,
the administrator may:

 
A.__Issue forms and orders and, after notice and comment,
adopt and amend rules necessary or appropriate to carry out
this chapter and may repeal rules, including rules and forms
governing registration statements, applications, notice
filings, reports and other records;

 
B.__By rule, define terms, whether or not used in this
chapter, but those definitions may not be inconsistent with
this chapter; and

 
C.__By rule, classify securities, persons and transactions
and adopt different requirements for different classes.
