Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why B is correct
ORC 3901.22(G) authorizes the superintendent and a licensee to resolve a disciplinary matter through a consent or settlement agreement — a negotiated disposition adopted without a contested ORC Chapter 119 hearing. This gives the producer a way to resolve the allegations on agreed terms rather than litigating them.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) A producer cannot make allegations disappear by paying a fee; resolution requires the superintendent's agreement under ORC 3901.22(G).
- C) Discipline is an executive-branch function; the General Assembly plays no appellate role in individual license matters.
- D) Dismissal is not automatic; absent a settlement or a favorable hearing outcome, the allegations proceed under ORC 3901.22.

Agree instead of argue — sign a consent agreement.
