Chapter 11 - CONTESTED CASES
Rule 645-11.31 - Reinstatement
Current through Register Vol. 46, No. 19, March 20, 2024
(1) Any person whose license to practice has been revoked or suspended may apply to the board for reinstatement in accordance with the terms and conditions of the order of revocation or suspension, unless the order of revocation provides that the license is permanently revoked.
(2) If the order of revocation or suspension did not establish terms and conditions upon which reinstatement might occur, or if the license was voluntarily surrendered, an initial application for reinstatement may not be made until one year has elapsed from the date of the order or the date of the voluntary surrender.
(3) All proceedings for reinstatement shall be initiated by the respondent, who shall file with the board an application for reinstatement of the license. Such application shall be docketed in the original case in which the license was revoked, suspended, or relinquished. All proceedings upon the application for reinstatement shall be subject to the same rules of procedure as other cases before the board.
(4) An application for reinstatement shall allege facts which, if established, will be sufficient to enable the board to determine that the basis for the revocation or suspension of the respondent's license no longer exists and that it will be in the public interest for the license to be reinstated. The burden of proof to establish such facts shall be on the respondent.
(5) An order denying or granting reinstatement shall be based upon a decision which incorporates findings of facts and conclusions of law. The order shall be published as provided for in this chapter.
