§ 6.10.045. Suspension—Revocation.  


Latest version.
  • (a) The sheriff or his designee may, upon good cause, suspend or revoke the work identification card issued pursuant to this chapter upon ten days notice to any person for an arrest and prosecution for any act subsequent to the issuance of a work identification card which would be grounds, under Section 6.10.040, for denial of a work identification card. Such revocation or suspension notice shall contain information regarding the appeal and stay of such notice as is provided below:

    (1)

    Such revocation or suspension shall be effective ten days after written notice is given to the work identification card holder.

    (2)

    Such notice shall inform the holder of the reason(s) for such suspension or revocation, the commencement date of such suspension or revocation, and the right to appeal.

    (3)

    Such notice may be given by delivering the same to the holder or by depositing the postmarked notice in the United States mail, postage prepaid, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the holder at the address stated on the holder's work identification card referral form or update thereof, and such notice shall be deemed given upon deposit of the postmarked notice in the United States mail.

    (b)

    An appeal, as provided in Section 6.10.050, from any suspension or revocation hereunder, shall automatically stay such revocation or suspension pending such appeal, except as provided below. Notification of receipt of the appeal issued by the director shall serve as a temporary work identification card pending a hearing before the hearing officer. An automatic stay shall not apply to revocations or suspensions that are based on an arrest and pending prosecution for any of the following crimes or crimes of another jurisdiction which prohibit the same or similar conduct: Child abuse as described in NRS 200.508; elder abuse as described in NRS 200.5099; kidnapping as described in NRS 200.310—200.340; murder as described in NRS 200.030; sexual assault as described in NRS 200.366; and in those situations resulting from a current arrest as stated, a stay or temporary work card may only be granted by a hearing officer if deemed appropriate under the particular circumstances disclosed at the appeal hearing.

    (c)

    The sheriff or the director or their designees shall have the authority to take possession of the work identification card either after the effective date of the revocation if no appeal has been filed or after a revocation has been upheld following such appeal.
