Settlement Agreement

The board may enter into a settlement agreement with the respondent as a means of resolving the complaint. Any proposed settlement agreement must be approved by the board, and must be approved further by the respondent, upon a knowing and intentional waiver by the respondent of his or her right to a hearing as provided by the Uniform Licensing Act. The settlement agreement must be signed by the respondent and respondent’s attorney, if represented by an attorney. If the respondent is not represented by an attorney then the respondent must acknowledge that he/she has been advised to seek the advice of an attorney.
