Chapter 24 - Athletic Trainers
§ 63-24-108 - Hearings -- Procedure -- Reissuance of licenses.
(a) Any person whose application is denied is entitled to a hearing before the board if the person submits a written request to the board. Disciplinary proceedings shall be conducted in accordance with the contested case provisions of the Uniform Administrative Procedures Act, compiled in title 4, chapter 5.
(b) On application, the board may reissue a license to a person whose license has been cancelled or revoked, but the application may not be made prior to the expiration of a period of six (6) months after the order of cancellation or revocation has become final, and application shall be made in the manner and form as the board may require.
(c) (1) Any person who practices in this state without having first complied with the provisions of this chapter commits a Class B misdemeanor for each instance of such practice. Each day any person practices without first obtaining a valid license or renewing a license constitutes a separate offense.
(2) The board, in addition to the powers and duties expressed in this chapter with respect to the grant, denial and discipline of licensure is empowered to petition any circuit or chancery court having jurisdiction of any person within this state who is practicing without a license or to whom a license has been denied, or whose license has been suspended or revoked by action of the board, to enjoin the person from continuing to practice within this state. Jurisdiction is conferred upon the circuit and chancery courts of this state to hear and determine all such causes as equity causes and exercise full and complete jurisdiction in such injunctive proceedings. Nothing in this section shall be construed as conferring criminal jurisdiction upon any court not now possessing such criminal jurisdiction, nor shall any such court, as an incident to the injunctive proceedings authorized in this subdivision (c)(2), have the power to assess the criminal penalties.
