New Jersey § 45:16-9

§ 45:16-9.

A veterinary practice may employ for each licensed veterinarian in the practice as veterinarians not more than two qualified veterinary graduates who have obtained a temporary permit;

provided that the qualified veterinary graduates have met all the requirements of the board as set forth in the practice act. An applicant for such a temporary permit shall be associated with a licensed veterinarian in the practice and his labors shall be limited to the practice of the licensed veterinarian. Each qualified veterinary graduate shall be under the responsible supervision of a licensed practicing veterinarian. Said applicant shall present himself for examination at the next scheduled examination of the board for which the applicant is eligible . There shall be a fee determined by the board for the aforementioned permit, which

fee shall be applied toward the examination fee, but shall be forfeited if the applicant

fails to present himself at the next scheduled examination for which the applicant is eligible . If the applicant does not pass the examination, additional permits may be issued

but not to exceed three in total . Application for such permit shall be countersigned by the licensed veterinarian with whom the candidate will be associated. A candidate who has failed to appear for an examination or who has failed an examination

and who has subsequent thereto failed to renew his permit is disqualified to practice

the profession of veterinary medicine, surgery, and dentistry. A lawfully qualified veterinarian of another state who meets the requirements of this

State for licensure may take charge temporarily of the practice of a licensed veterinarian of this State during his absence from such practice, not to exceed 90

days, unless renewed, upon written request to the board for permission to do so and

upon payment of a fee as determined by the board. The board shall have the right to suspend or revoke any temporary permit for a violation of R.S.45:16-1 et seq. by either the permittee or licensee-employer; provided that before any such permit

shall be suspended or revoked, the accused person shall be afforded a hearing before

the board . A licensed practitioner may also use a veterinarian who is qualified under the provisions

of the American Veterinary Medical Association's Education Commission for Foreign

Veterinary Graduates or who is qualified under any other training program approved

by the board, who shall have obtained a training certificate from the board for this

purpose. That person shall be under the responsible supervision of the licensed practitioner.
