What this video covers
- Why a cease and desist order is completely preventative and can issue before a violation is complete, not after harm occurs
- The three-step sequence of issuance and why neither court approval nor prior hearing is required
- The critical boundary that a cease and desist order stops conduct but cannot freeze assets, demand restitution, or levy penalties
- Why the Administrator and the court can act simultaneously on the same conduct, with cease and desist orders and injunctions not being mutually exclusive
- How summary suspension differs from cease and desist: one stops the person from operating, the other stops the specific action
- Which hearing-free tools belong to the Administrator and which monetary remedies require crossing to the court
- Exam trap identification: spotting answer choices that wrongly state the Administrator must wait for financial harm, must choose between administrative and court remedies, or can touch money without judicial involvement
