Section 3050.7 Of Article 2. Powers And Duties Of Board From California Vehicle Code >> Division 2. >> Chapter 6. >> Article 2.
3050.7
. (a) The board may adopt stipulated decisions and orders,
without a hearing pursuant to Section 3066, 3080, or 3085.2, to
resolve one or more issues raised by a protest or petition filed with
the board. Whenever the parties to a protest or petition submit a
proposed stipulated decision and order of the board, a copy of the
proposed stipulated decision and order shall be transmitted by the
executive director of the board to each member of the board. The
proposed stipulated decision and order shall be deemed to be adopted
by the board unless a member of the board notifies the executive
director of the board of an objection thereto within 10 days after
that board member has received a copy of the proposed stipulated
decision and order.
(b) If the board adopts a stipulated decision and order to resolve
a protest filed pursuant to Section 3060 or 3070 in which the
parties stipulate that good cause exists for the termination of the
franchise of the protestant, and the order provides for a conditional
or unconditional termination of the franchise of the protestant,
paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 3060 and paragraph (2) of
subdivision (a) of Section 3070, which require a hearing to
determine whether good cause exists for termination of the franchise,
is inapplicable to the proceedings. If the stipulated decision and
order provides for an unconditional termination of the franchise, the
franchise may be terminated without further proceedings by the
board. If the stipulated decision and order provides for the
termination of the franchise, conditioned upon the failure of a party
to comply with specified conditions, the franchise may be terminated
upon a determination, according to the terms of the stipulated
decision and order, that the conditions have not been met. If the
stipulated decision and order provides for the termination of the
franchise conditioned upon the occurrence of specified conditions,
the franchise may be terminated upon a determination, according to
the terms of the stipulated decision and order, that the stipulated
conditions have occurred.
(c) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1,
2019, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted
statute, that is enacted before January 1, 2019, deletes or extends
that date.
