Which is why the smart ones have lawyers.

pulling a license is not “harassment” but a process with legal ramifications. If the state license was pulled followed by the federal license then there is more to the story. There are due process requirements on the state license pull that any attorney would be able to navigate. We would have heard a lot more about this if they dealer had not done anything illegal. I stand by my prediction on off list sales.

Pulling the federal license is actually very rare and drawn out. I had along talk with a couple of the agents doing inspections. They give a LOT of leeway to dealers to correct mistakes. They said about the only thing that results in immediate license pull is no 4473 done for a known prohibited person. Otherwise they have escalation steps that likely require as many as five audits with issues before they will pull.

Violation of state law they leave to the state. It is a violation of your federal license to violate state law, but an administrative pull of state dealers license is not proof of law violation.

So I still want to see details before I believe the story on this one.
