1. If the Division, after an application
for a license in proper form has been filed with it, accompanied by the proper
fee, denies an application, the Division shall give notice of the denial to the
applicant within 15 days after its ruling, order or decision.
2. Upon written request from the
applicant, filed within 30 days after receipt of that notice by the applicant,
the President of the Commission shall set the matter for a hearing to be
conducted at the next meeting of the Commission held pursuant to NRS 645.150 after receipt of the
applicants request if the request is received at least 20 days before the
meeting and contains allegations which, if true, qualify the applicant for a
license.
3. The hearing must be held at such time
and place as the Commission prescribes. At least 15 days before the date set
for the hearing, the Division shall notify the applicant and shall accompany
the notification with an exact copy of any protest filed, together with copies
of all communications, reports, affidavits or depositions in the possession of
the Division relevant to the matter in question. Written notice of the hearing
may be served by delivery personally to the applicant, or by mailing it by certified
mail to the last known address of the applicant.
4. The hearing may be held by the
Commission or by a majority of its members, and a hearing must be held, if the
applicant so desires. A record of the proceedings, or any part thereof, must be
made available to each party upon the payment to the Division of the reasonable
cost of transcription.
5. The Commission shall render a written
decision on any appeal within 60 days after the final hearing and shall notify
the parties to the proceedings, in writing, of its ruling, order or decision
within 15 days after it is made.
6. If an applicant has made a false
statement of material fact on his or her application, the false statement may
in itself be sufficient ground for refusal of a license.
