The commissioner may suspend or revoke any license or registration issued pursuant to section sixty-seven for any one of the following reasons:--
Any person aggrieved by such suspension or revocation may appeal therefrom to the appellate tax board within ten days after written notice of the decision has been mailed or delivered to him. The appellant shall at the time of taking an appeal file with said board a surety company bond running to the commonwealth, with a surety company authorized to do business in the commonwealth as surety, in such sum as said board shall fix, conditioned to prosecute the appeal to effect and to comply with the orders and decrees of said board in the premises. Such appeals shall be preferred cases to be heard, unless cause appears to the contrary, in priority to other cases. During the pendency of any such appeal the decision of the commissioner so appealed from shall, unless otherwise ordered by said board, be inoperative. Said board may grant such relief as may be equitable. If the appeal shall have been taken without probable cause, the board may tax double or triple costs, as the case shall demand; and, upon all such appeals which may be denied, costs may be taxed against the appellant at the discretion of the board; provided, that no costs shall be taxed against the commonwealth.
A person whose registration has been suspended or revoked shall pay to the commissioner a fee of twenty dollars for the reissuance of a registration. The commissioner shall not issue a new registration after the suspension or revocation of a registration unless he is satisfied that the former holder of the registration will comply with the provisions of this chapter and with all pertinent rules and regulations made thereunder.
The commissioner shall provide notice to the director of the state lottery of a retailer, as defined in section 1 of chapter 64C, an electronic nicotine delivery system retailer, as defined in subsection (a) of section 7E of said chapter 64C, or a cigar retailer, as defined in subsection (a) of section 7B of said chapter 64C, whose license, issued under section 67, has been suspended or revoked by the department for a willful violation of paragraph (1) of subsection (l) of said section 7B of said chapter 64C, paragraph (1) of subsection (l) of section 7E of said chapter 64C or sections 34 or 35 of said chapter 64C and who is a licensee authorized to sell lottery tickets under sections 26 and 27 of chapter 10.
