The complaint must fully detail the conduct upon which the complaint is made. If the executive secretary determines the complaint has merit, the executive secretary must immediately serve a copy of the complaint by mail on the licensee complained against and on any other affected parties. The licensee complained against has five days to answer after service of the complaint. If the licensee answers the complaint, the licensee must serve the answer on the commission.
