§407.45. Denial, refusal to renew, or revocation of license; appeal procedure
A. Upon the refusal of the department to grant or renew a license or upon the
revocation of a license, the applicant or licensee having been refused a license or renewal,
or having had a license revoked shall have the right to appeal such action to the division of
administrative law by submitting a written request for an appeal to the department within
thirty calendar days after receipt of the notification of the refusal to grant a license, or within
fifteen calendar days after receipt of the notification of the refusal to renew or revocation.
The department shall notify the division of administrative law within ten calendar days of
receipt of a request for an appeal and the appeal hearing shall be held no later than thirty
calendar days after such notice, with an administrative ruling no later than fifteen calendar
days from the date of a hearing for revocation or refusal to renew a license, or within thirty
days from the date of a hearing for the denial of a new license. This provision shall in no way

but not limited to R.S. 49:978.1(A)(2), the department shall be entitled to seek judicial

appeal hearing arising under this Part. The venue of judicial review shall be the district court
of the parish in which the licensee is located.
