Requesting a Hearing before the State Board of Nursing

If you receive correspondence from the State Board of Nursing stating you have __days to request a hearing, don't try to compute the time period and figure out the last day to file your request for a hearing. Request a hearing asap.

It is _days from receipt of the letter or from the date on the letter? Does it have to be mailed to the Board of Nursing in __days or does it have to be received by the Board of Nursing within __days?

This is just common sense, not legal advice.

You may not count the days correctly or compute the time period accurately and thereby forego your right to a hearing.

1. If you receive a correspondence from the State Board of Nursing about an investigation, consider contacting a licensure defense attorney. You can represent, counsel, and advise yourself or you can hire an attorney to represent, counsel, and advise you.

2. If you receive correspondence from the State Board of Nursing about requesting a hearing and formal charges being filed against your license, contact a licensure defense attorney immediately. You can represent, counsel, and advise yourself or you can hire an attorney to represent, counsel, and advise you.
