from committing violations of the Oklahoma Home Service Contract Act

order imposing a civil penalty on that provider, or any combination

of the following, as applicable:

a. a person aggrieved by an order issued under this

paragraph may request a hearing before the

Commissioner. The hearing request shall be filed with

the Commissioner within twenty (20) days of the date
