Read the full explanation
The provisions repealed by the bill establish procedures for issuing notice to an individual in default, for the scheduling of a conference between the individual and the commission, for entering into a written agreement for payment of the obligation which takes into consideration the individual’s ability to pay, for the individual to request a hearing, and for the issuance of a certificate for noncompliance to any appropriate licensing authority. Provisions repealed by the bill require each licensing authority to include in its rules, as grounds for suspension, revocation, or denial of issuance or renewal of a license, the receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the commission; require a licensing authority to initiate procedures for suspension, revocation, or denial of issuance or renewal of licensure to the individual; direct the supreme court to prescribe rules providing for the denial, suspension, or revocation of the admission to practice as an attorney and counselor for failure to repay an obligation owed to or collected by the commission; and permit the individual to seek a review of the commission’s decision and request a hearing before the district court.
