If a producer continues to operate after receiving a cease and desist order, what is the maximum fine per day?

The maximum fine per day for a producer who continues to operate after receiving a cease and desist order is set at $100. This reflects the regulatory intent to enforce compliance with orders issued by authorities. The fine serves both as a punitive measure for non-compliance and as a deterrent to encourage producers to adhere to the regulations in place for the surety industry.

The amount is significant enough to stress the importance of compliance while being considered a manageable daily penalty. This helps regulatory bodies maintain order and integrity within the industry and underscores the consequences of disregarding legal directives. The specific daily fine amount is typically derived from state regulatory statutes or administrative codes that address conduct following such orders, aiming to ensure that producers operate within the boundaries of the law.
