Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why B is correct
T.C.A. § 56-6-112 and T.C.A. § 56-1-109 give the Commissioner authority to suspend or revoke an insurance license for violating the state's insurance laws and regulations, including unfair trade practices. Exceeding CE hours, holding multiple proper appointments, or moving between agencies involve no legal violation and carry no disciplinary exposure by themselves.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Earning extra continuing-education hours is harmless; the CE duty is a floor, not a ceiling.
- C) A producer may lawfully be appointed by more than one insurer; multiple appointments violate nothing.
- D) Changing agencies is an ordinary business event with no disciplinary consequence under T.C.A. § 56-6-112.
Memory hook
Break the insurance law, risk the license — extra hours and new agencies never cost you one.
