Order to show cause
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
(1) Before denying, suspending, or revoking a
registration, or refusing a renewal of registration, the board or BHA shall serve upon the
applicant or registrant an order to show cause why registration should not be denied, revoked, or
suspended, or the renewal refused. The order must state its grounds and direct the applicant or
registrant to appear before the board or BHA at a specified time and place not less than thirty
days after the date of service of the order. In case of a refusal to renew a registration, the order
must be served not later than thirty days before the expiration of the registration. These
proceedings must be conducted in accordance with section 24-4-105. The proceedings do not
preclude any criminal prosecution or other proceeding. A proceeding to refuse to renew a
registration does not affect the existing registration, which remains in effect until completion of
the proceeding.
(2) The board or BHA may suspend, without an order to show cause, any registration
simultaneously with the institution of proceedings under section 18-18-304, or where renewal of
registration is refused, upon finding that there is an imminent danger to the public health or
safety that warrants this action. The suspension continues in effect until the conclusion of the
proceedings, including judicial review thereof, unless sooner withdrawn by the board or BHA or
dissolved by a court of competent jurisdiction.
