SDCL § 58-43-20: Hardship exemption--Hearing.

Upon written application of an insurer, the director may grant an exemption from compliance with this chapter if the director finds, upon review of the application, that compliance with this chapter would constitute a financial or organizational hardship upon the insurer. An exemption may be granted at any time and from time to time for any specified period. Within ten days from a denial of an insurer's written request for an exemption from this rule, the insurer may request in writing a hearing on its application for an exemption.
