Whenever, under this chapter, the commission is authorized to revoke a license or permit issued by it, except in those cases where revocation is mandatory, it may, if, in its discretion, it feels that revocation of the license or permit is too drastic a penalty, suspend the license or permit, and the procedure for such suspension and the review of such suspension order shall be the same as that prescribed herein for revocation of licenses or permits issued under this chapter.
If a revocation of license is being contemplated with respect to a retailer's license on premises owned by a person, firm or corporation not the licensee, a copy of the notice sent to the licensee shall also be sent to the owner at the address on record with the commission.
The commission or other employee designated by the commission is empowered to subpoena witnesses and compel their attendance and the production of records, memoranda, papers and other documents at any hearing authorized under this section.
At all hearings provided for herein, the commission shall provide a stenographer to take a stenographic record of the evidence adduced at such hearing. The applicant, licensee, permittee, or protestant shall be entitled to a copy of the stenographic record, upon application thereof, and upon paying the reasonable cost thereof to be fixed by the commission. The commission may require the applicant to bear the costs of any hearing required on the application including any fees to court reporter and preparation and copying of a transcript or stenographic record of such hearing. All such costs must be paid by the applicant before it may receive its license.
No judge of any court shall have the authority to supersede, stay or enjoin any order of revocation of the commission issued pursuant to a hearing authorized under this section, but such order shall remain in full force and effect until the final decision by the supreme court except where the judgment of the circuit court is unappealed from and has become a final judgment.
