Section 19:38A-4.5 - Procedures, period of suspension, and scope of suspension

(a) The Authority may suspend a firm, provided that at least 10 days before the effective date of the suspension, the Authority provides such firm with a written notice:

1. Stating that a suspension has been imposed and stating its effective date;

2. Setting forth the reasons for the suspension to the extent that the Attorney General determines that such reasons may be properly disclosed;

3. Stating that the suspension is for a temporary period pending the completion of an investigation and any legal proceedings that may ensue; and

4. Indicating that, if such legal proceedings are not commenced, or the suspension removed within 60 days of the date of such notice, the firm or the individual will be given either a statement of the reasons for the suspension and an opportunity for a hearing, or a statement declining to give such reasons which sets forth the Authority's position regarding the continuation of the suspension. Where the Authority suspends a firm based on a suspension by any other agency of government, the Authority shall identify same as a reason for the suspension.

(b) A suspension shall not continue beyond 18 months from its effective date, unless civil or criminal action regarding the alleged violation has been initiated within that period, or unless debarment action has been commenced. When prosecution or debarment action has been initiated, the suspension may continue until the legal proceedings are completed.
