(a) Every pleading issued by the commissioner to initiate a formal enforcement action under this code against a licensee or applicant, and every order issued by the commissioner or a court of competent jurisdiction or other document that resolves a formal enforcement action, shall be displayed on the department’s internet website, if the document is a public record that is not exempt from disclosure to the public pursuant to the California Public Records Act (Division 10 (commencing with Section 7920.000) of Title 1 of the Government Code).

(b) Notwithstanding Section 12969, if an enforcement action against a licensee or applicant is withdrawn, then each pleading, document, or order against that licensee or applicant shall be removed from the department’s internet website within 30 days of the withdrawal of the action. If a pleading, document, or order contains allegations against multiple licensees or applicants, and the department withdraws all allegations against any one or more of the licensees or applicants, then the department shall post, on its internet website, a pleading, document, or order that clarifies that the enforcement action against that specific licensee or applicant has been withdrawn.
