English summary	At the Kobe branch, the sole full-time real estate transaction specialist resigned on August 31, 2022. Despite being absent, the violator did not establish a new specialist and transferred the office, submitting a notification to open a new Kyoto branch. Subsequently, they submitted a notification that a new specialist had taken over at this office, but the claim that the previous specialist was still in office until the new appointment was false. As a result, the office continued to operate in a state not compliant with legal requirements until July 18, 2024, when a new specialist was appointed. This constitutes a violation of Article 31-3, Paragraph 3 of the Act and falls under Article 65, Paragraph 2, Item 2 of the Act.
