Florida Statutes § 662.144 — Failure to submit required report; fines.

662.144 Failure to submit required report; fines.—If a family trust company, licensed family trust company, or foreign licensed family trust company fails to submit within the prescribed period its annual renewal or any other report required by this chapter or any rule, the office may impose a fine of up to $100 for each day that the annual renewal or report is overdue. Failure to provide the annual renewal within 60 days after the end of the calendar year shall automatically result in termination of the registration of a family trust company or foreign licensed family trust company or revocation of the license of a licensed family trust company. A family trust company may have its registration or license automatically reinstated by submitting to the office, on or before August 31 of the calendar year in which the renewal application is due, the company’s annual renewal application and fee required under s. 662.128, a $500 late fee, and the amount of any fine imposed by the office under this section. A family trust company that fails to renew or reinstate its registration or license must wind up its affairs on or before November 30 of the calendar year in which such failure occurs. Fees and fines collected under this section shall be deposited into the Financial Institutions’ Regulatory Trust Fund pursuant to s. 655.049 for the purpose of administering this chapter.
