Ohio Insurance Laws and Regulations Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

Who would be responsible for the prosecution of an agent who has committed an insurance crime that violates US code 1033 (interstate commerce)?

FBI

US Attorney General

The US Attorney General would be responsible for the prosecution of the agent. This is because US code 1033 refers to federal law and the US Attorney General acts as the top law enforcement officer in the country, responsible for enforcing federal laws. The other options, FBI, local police, and state insurance commissioner, do not have the authority to prosecute someone for violating a federal law. The FBI is a federal agency that investigates crimes, but they do not have the power to prosecute. Local police only have jurisdiction within their own municipality and can only enforce state and local laws. State insurance commissioners are responsible for regulating insurance within their state, but do not have the authority to prosecute federal crimes.
