N.J. Admin. Code § 19:30-2.3

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024
Section 19:30-2.3 - Conditions affecting the disqualification/debarment of a person(s)
(a) The following conditions shall apply concerning disqualification/debarment:
1. The existence of any of the causes set forth in N.J.A.C. 19:30-2.2(a) shall not necessarily require that a person be disqualified/debarred. In each instance, the decision to disqualify/debar shall be made within the discretion of the Authority unless otherwise required by law, and shall be rendered in the best interests of the Authority.
2. All mitigating factors shall be considered in determining the seriousness of the offense or inadequacy of performance, and in deciding whether disqualification/debarment is warranted.
3. The existence of a cause set forth in N.J.A.C. 19:30-2.2(a)1 through 8 shall be established upon the rendering of a final judgment or conviction including a guilty plea or a plea of nolo contendere by a court of competent jurisdiction or by an administrative agency empowered to render such judgment. In the event an appeal taken from such judgment or conviction results in reversal thereof, the disqualification/debarment shall be removed upon the request of the disqualified/debarred person unless other cause for disqualification/debarment exists.
4. The existence of a cause set forth in N.J.A.C. 19:30-2.2(a)9 and 11 shall be established by evidence which the Authority determines to be clear and convincing in nature.
5. Debarment for the cause set forth in N.J.A.C. 19:30-2.2(a)10 shall be proper, provided that one of the causes set forth in N.J.A.C. 19:30-2.2(a)1 through 8 was the basis for debarment by the original debarring agency. Such debarment may be based entirely on the record of facts obtained by the original debarring agency, or upon a combination of such facts and additional facts.
