suspending, or revoking a license or certificate on behalf of the commission, subject
to appropriations made to the department of personnel. Each administrative law
judge shall be appointed pursuant to part 10 of article 30 of title 24. The
administrative law judge shall conduct the hearing pursuant to the provisions of
sections 24-4-104 and 24-4-105. No license shall be denied, suspended, or revoked
until the commission has made its decision by a majority vote.
(4) The decision of the commission in any disciplinary action or denial of

staying the commission's order. If the court determines that the order should be
stayed, it shall also determine at the hearing the amount of the bond and adequacy
of the surety, which bond shall be conditioned upon the faithful performance by the

all damages arising from or caused by the delay in the taking effect of or
enforcement of the order complained of and for all costs that may be assessed or
required to be paid in connection with the proceedings.

of the denial, suspension, or revocation of a license because of the conviction of a
felony or of a crime involving moral turpitude, the commission shall be governed by
the provisions of section 24-5-101.
