§ 5:2a-17.
a. The board may revoke any license, after hearing for cause. The board may discipline any licensee who shall violate any of the provisions of
this act or the regulations made pursuant thereto. This discipline may take the form of revocation or suspension of a license held
by the licensee for all or part of the unexpired portion thereof, and of a refusal
to renew a license held by any such licensee. b. The board may, upon its own motion, or upon the verified written complaint of any
person charging a licensee with violating any provision of this act or the rules and
regulations promulgated hereunder, suspend temporarily any license or permit until
final determination by the board when such an action is necessary to protect the public
welfare and the best interests of boxing, wrestling, extreme wrestling, kick boxing or combative sports. A hearing shall be held within 30 days after the date on which any license or permit
has been suspended temporarily unless extended for good cause. c. The board may also, after affording an opportunity to be heard, take one or more
of the following actions: (1) Issue a reprimand or censure with regard to any act, conduct or practice which
in the board's judgment upon consideration of all relevant facts and circumstances
does not warrant the initiation of formal action; (2) Assess civil penalties in accordance with this act; (3) Order that any person violating any provision of this act or any regulation made
pursuant thereto cease and desist from future violations thereof or take such affirmative
corrective action as may be necessary with regard to any act or practice found unlawful
by the board; (4) Order any person found to have violated any provision of this act or any regulation
made pursuant thereto to restore to any person aggrieved by an unlawful act or practice,
any moneys or property, real or personal, acquired by means of that act or practice,
except that the board shall not order restoration in a dollar amount greater than
those moneys received by a licensee or his agent or any other person violating this
act or any regulation made pursuant thereto; and (5) Order any person as a condition for continued, reinstated or renewed licensure
to secure medical or such other professional treatment as may be necessary.
