Administrative Hearing.

(a) A person is not required to post security to obtain an administrative hearing.

(b) Property seized under a notice of jeopardy determination or jeopardy assessment may not be sold without the consent of the owner during the first 30 days after service of such notice, nor while a timely application for administrative hearing is pending. The storing of the property during the period the application is pending will be at the applicant's expense. Storage expenses may be waived, credited, or refunded.

(c) The filing of an application for an administrative hearing will not stay other collection activities not identified in subdivision (b). A stay of other collection activities will only arise if the person deposits the amount of security indicated in the notice of jeopardy determination within the 10-day period specified in section 5223.
