Any person or organization, including the board upon its own volition, may file
with the board a written complaint alleging a violation of any provision of this
chapter. The board shall investigate each complaint.
If the investigation reveals evidence supporting the complaint, the board shall set
the matter for hearing in accordance with the provisions of KRS Chapter 13B before
fining, reprimanding, suspending, revoking, refusing to renew, or any combination
thereof.
If the investigation reveals that the alleged violation did occur but was not of a
serious nature, the board may issue a written admonishment to the certificate holder
or licensee. A copy of the admonishment shall be placed in the recipient's
permanent file with the board. The recipient shall have the right to file a response to
the admonishment within thirty (30) days of its receipt and have the response placed
in the permanent file. The recipient may, alternatively, within thirty (30) days of the
receipt, file a request for hearing with the board. Upon receipt of this request, the
board shall set aside the written admonishment and set the matter for hearing in
accordance with the provisions of KRS Chapter 13B.
After denying an application for a certificate or license or issuing an admonishment,
the board shall grant an administrative hearing in accordance with KRS Chapter
13B only upon written request of the applicant made within thirty (30) days of the
mailing of the letter of denial or admonishment.
Any party aggrieved by a final order of the board may appeal to Franklin Circuit
Court as provided by KRS Chapter 13B.
