124.304 REVOCATION, SUSPENSION, OR RESTRICTION OF
REGISTRATION.
1. The board may suspend, revoke, or restrict a registration
under section 124.303 to manufacture, distribute, or dispense a
controlled substance upon a finding that any of the following apply
to the registrant:
a. The registrant has furnished false or fraudulent material
information in any application filed under this chapter.
b. The registrant has had the registrant's federal
registration to manufacture, distribute, or dispense controlled
substances suspended, revoked, or restricted.
c. The registrant has been convicted of a public offense
under any state or federal law relating to any controlled substance.
For the purpose of this section only, a conviction shall include a
plea of guilty, a forfeiture of bail or collateral deposited to
secure a defendant's appearance in court which forfeiture has not
been vacated, or a finding of guilt in a criminal action even though
the entry of the judgment or sentence has been withheld and the
individual placed on probation.
d. The registrant has committed such acts as would render the
registrant's registration under section 124.303 inconsistent with the
public interest as determined under that section.
e. If the registrant is a licensed health care professional,
the registrant has had the registrant's professional license revoked
or suspended or has been otherwise disciplined in a way that
restricts the registrant's authority to handle or prescribe
controlled substances.
2. The board may limit revocation or suspension of a registration
to the particular controlled substance with respect to which grounds
for revocation or suspension exist.
3. If the board suspends or revokes a registration, all
controlled substances owned or possessed by the registrant at the
time of suspension or the effective date of the revocation order may
be placed under seal. No disposition may be made of substances under
seal until the time for taking an appeal has elapsed or until all
appeals have been concluded unless a court, upon application, orders
the sale of perishable substances and the deposit of the proceeds of
the sale with the court. Upon a revocation order becoming final, all
such controlled substances may be forfeited to the state.
4. The board shall promptly notify the bureau and the department
of all orders suspending or revoking registration and all forfeitures
of controlled substances. Section History: Early Form
