Official statutory text
(1) Prior to suspending, restricting, or revoking a registration, refusing a renewal of registration, or otherwise disciplining a registrant, the board shall serve upon the registrant a notice in accordance with section 17A.12, subsection 1. The proceedings shall comply with the contested case procedures in accordance with chapter 17A. The proceedings shall also be conducted without regard to any criminal prosecution or other proceeding. Proceedings to refuse renewal of registration shall not abate the existing registration which shall remain in effect pending the outcome of the administrative hearing.
(2) The board may suspend any registration while simultaneously pursuing emergency adjudicative proceedings in accordance with section 17A.18A, if it finds that there is an imminent danger to the public health or safety which warrants this action. The suspension shall continue in effect until the conclusion of the proceedings, including judicial review thereof, under the provisions of the Iowa administrative procedure Act, chapter 17A, unless sooner withdrawn by the board or dissolved by the order of the district court or an appellate court.
