     245A.05 Denial of application. 

    The commissioner may deny a license if an applicant fails 
 to comply with applicable laws or rules, or knowingly withholds 
 relevant information from or gives false or misleading 
 information to the commissioner in connection with an 
 application for a license or during an investigation.  An 
 applicant whose application has been denied by the commissioner 
 must be given notice of the denial.  Notice must be given by 
 certified mail or personal service.  The notice must state the 
 reasons the application was denied and must inform the applicant 
 of the right to a contested case hearing under chapter 14 and 
 Minnesota Rules, parts 1400.8505 to 1400.8612.  The applicant 
 may appeal the denial by notifying the commissioner in writing 
 by certified mail or personal service within 20 calendar days 
 after receiving notice that the application was denied.  Section 
 245A.08 applies to hearings held to appeal the commissioner's 
 denial of an application.
