Insurance License Suspended

SPRINGFIELD, IL. -- Acting Illinois Director of Insurance Deirdre K. Manna has suspended the insurance producer license of Clifford S. Tucker of Roselle, Illinois effective December 18, 2004. Mr. Tucker had been licensed since March 1, 1996.

Mr. Tucker was licensed to sell life, accident, and health. The licenses were suspended as a result of an investigation, which revealed that the Licensee has an unpaid tax liability in the amount of $5,087.16 due the Illinois Department of Revenue and has failed to file his 1999 IL-1040 return.

Under the Illinois Administrative Review Law he may have the right to appeal and request a stay of the Order. A copy of the Director's Order is attached.
