§ 5-65.3-13. Procedure for revocation of license.
(a) No proceeding to revoke a license, as provided in this section, shall be instituted
unless filed with the board within one year immediately following the date or dates
of violation.
(b) No license of an underground utility contractor shall be revoked or cancelled until
after a full and impartial hearing is completed as provided in this section.
(c) No hearing for the purpose of revoking any license of an underground utility contractor
shall be held unless there is first placed on file with the board a verified complaint,
in writing, reciting in the complaint, with reasonable particularity, a statement
of facts that, if proved, would be sufficient to constitute a violation of one or
more of the specifications for revocation of license as prescribed in this chapter.
(d) Upon the filing of a verified complaint as provided in this section, the board shall
promptly set a date for a hearing of the charges of the complaint. The board shall
promptly, by registered or certified mail, forward to the licensee charged in the
complaint a true and correct copy of the complaint and notification of the time and
place when and where a hearing of those charges is to be held.
(e) At the time and place fixed in the notification, the board shall proceed to a hearing
of the charges specified in the complaint. No hearing upon the charges of the complaint
shall be held unless the records of the board contain evidence that the licensee charged
in the complaint has been served with a copy of the complaint and notification at
least twenty (20) days prior to the date of the hearing; provided, that the appearance
of the charged licensee, either on its own behalf or by counsel, constitutes proof
that sufficient notice of the hearing was served.
(f) A complaining party, individually or by counsel, may aid in the presentation of evidence
toward sustaining the complaint. Ample opportunity shall be accorded for a hearing
of all evidence and statement of counsel either in support of or against the charges
of the complaint. Upon good cause shown, the date of the hearing on the complaint
may be continued provided the licensee and other interested parties are reasonably
notified about the date of continuance.
