Upon the filing with the board of county commissioners of the county in which a licensee maintains his or her principal place of business or with the governing body of the city in which the licensee maintains his or her principal place of business if the licensee maintains his or her principal place of business within an incorporated city of a verified complaint charging the licensee with the commission, within 1 year prior to the date of filing the complaint, of any act which is cause for suspension or revocation of a license, the board of county commissioners or the governing body, as applicable, forthwith shall issue a citation directing the licensee, within 10 days after service thereof upon him or her, to appear by filing with the board of county commissioners or the governing body, as applicable, a verified answer to the complaint showing cause, if any he or she has, why his or her license should not be suspended or revoked. Service of the citation with a copy of the complaint shall be made upon the licensee as provided by the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure for the service of process in civil actions.
