§ 15-22 Commencement of Proceedings.
RCNY § 15-22
(a)Entitlement to a Hearing. A licensee shall be entitled to submit a written request for a hearing following issuance of a Notice of Determination Letter notifying the licensee of suspension or revocation of a license and the opportunity for a hearing.
(b)Scheduling of Hearings. A licensee who wishes to request a hearing relating to a suspension or revocation shall submit a written request to the Commanding Officer, License Division, following the issuance of a Notice of Determination Letter, within ninety (90) calendar days of the date on the Notice of Determination Letter. A licensee whose arrest or summons resulted in suspension or revocation of her/his license may only submit a written request for a hearing within ninety (90) calendar days after the termination of the criminal action, as defined in New York State Criminal Procedure Law § 1.20(16)(c). If the suspension or revocation resulted from the licensee becoming the subject of an order of protection or a temporary order of protection, the licensee may only submit a written request for a hearing within ninety (90) calendar days after the expiration or voiding of the order of protection or temporary order of protection. If the suspension or revocation was related to both a criminal action and an order of protection or temporary order of protection, then the later of the two waiting periods shall apply. The License Division shall schedule a hearing within a reasonable time of receipt of the request.
(c)Notice of Hearing. A licensee shall receive notification of the date, time and place of the hearing by regular and/or electronic mail addressed to the licensee's last known address. Additionally, a licensee's New York State licensed attorney shall receive notification, if the attorney has filed an appearance with the Department.
