(1)A district or county superintendent shall notify the superintendent of public instruction whenever it is ascertained that a licensed textbook dealer is:
(a)offering to sell textbooks at a higher price than the listed uniform sales price filed with the superintendent of public instruction;
(b)offering to sell textbooks at a higher shipping point price than the shipping point price of the same textbooks distributed elsewhere in the United States; or
(c)in any other way performing contrary to the laws regulating the offering of textbooks for sale or adoption to districts.
(2)Upon receipt of such notification from the district or county superintendent, the superintendent of public instruction shall notify the appropriate licensed textbook dealer of the complaint. If the superintendent of public instruction finds that the licensed textbook dealer has violated any provision of this section and the dealer fails to rectify the error within 30 days of the notification of the finding of a violation, the dealer shall forfeit the dealer's surety bond. The attorney general, upon written request of the superintendent of public instruction, shall proceed to collect by legal action the full amount of the surety bond. Any amount recovered must be paid into the state general fund.
