§ 5735.04.
If a motor fuel dealer files a false monthly report of the information required under section 5735.06 of the Revised Code , fails to file a monthly report as required by that section or section 5735.024 of the Revised Code , or fails to pay the full amount of the tax as required by the motor fuel laws of
the state or as may be agreed upon by the tax commissioner and the motor fuel dealer,
the commissioner may revoke the license of the motor fuel dealer, and notify the motor
fuel dealer in writing of such revocation in the manner provided in section 5703.37 of the Revised Code . The commissioner may cancel any license issued to any motor fuel dealer, and the cancellation
shall become effective at the time that may be determined by the commissioner. The commissioner also may cancel the license of any motor fuel dealer upon sixty
days' notice mailed to the last known address of the motor fuel dealer if the commissioner,
upon investigation, finds that the person to whom the license has been issued is no
longer engaged in the receipt, use, or sale of motor fuel as a motor fuel dealer,
and has not been so engaged for the period of six months prior to the cancellation. No license shall be canceled upon the request of any motor fuel dealer unless the
motor fuel dealer, prior to the date of cancellation, has paid to the state all motor
fuel taxes payable or assumed by the motor fuel dealer under the laws of the state,
together with all penalties and fines accruing by reason of any failure of the motor
fuel dealer to make accurate reports of receipts of motor fuel or to pay the taxes
and penalties. If the license of any motor fuel dealer is canceled by the commissioner as provided
in this section, and if the motor fuel dealer has paid to the state all motor fuel
taxes due and payable by the motor fuel dealer under the laws of the state, or assumed
by the motor fuel dealer upon the receipt, sale, or use of motor fuel, together with
all penalties accruing by reason of any failure on the part of the motor fuel dealer
to make accurate reports or to pay the tax and penalties, then the commissioner shall
cancel and surrender the bond theretofore filed by the motor fuel dealer.
