14026.5. Where a person who is or has been licensed under this chapter has been found by the commissioner to have violated any provision of this code that would justify the suspension or revocation of a license held by the person, or where a person is applying for a license under this chapter and there exists grounds for the denial of the application by the commissioner, the commissioner may, after hearing, revoke the license held or deny the application for an unrestricted license, and in lieu thereof issue to the person a restricted license. The commissioner may impose any reasonable conditions upon the acquisition of the restricted license or conduct of the holder of the license. The holder of the restricted license has no property right in it and the commissioner may, with or without either hearing or cause, suspend or revoke a restricted license. If a hearing is held under this section, it shall be conducted in accordance with Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code. The holder of a restricted license is subject to all the provisions of this code and the license shall be kept in force and renewed in the same manner, at the same time, and subject to the same conditions and fees as are applicable to an unrestricted license to act in the same capacity.
