If a timely written request for a hearing is received by the department, the department shall certify the matter for hearing to the district court where the transferee resides or to the district court where the transferor resides if the transferee is not an Iowa resident. If neither the transferor nor the transferee resides in Iowa, the order may be filed in any county in which the transferor formerly resided.
The certification shall include true copies of the original notice, the return of service, any request for an informal conference, if applicable, any subsequent notices, the written request for hearing, and true copies of any administrative orders previously entered.
