Denial/Discipline of a License

The statutes, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 71-147, of the Uniform Licensing Law, standards of other states; how ascertained, provide several grounds by which the Department may deny, refuse renewal of, limit, suspend, or revoke licenses, one of which is:

Conviction of a misdemeanor or felony under state law, federal law, or the law of another jurisdiction and which, if committed within this state, would have constituted a misdemeanor or felony under state law and which has a rational connection with the applicant's, or licensee's fitness or capacity to practice the profession.

Probationary or Limited License: The Department of Health and Human Services, Regulation and Licensure, Licensing & Regulatory Affairs may issue an initial license on probation (with terms and conditions or limitation) based on these same grounds for discipline.

A complete listing of grounds for denial or discipline can be found in Neb. Rev. Stat. § 71-147, of the Uniform Licensing Law.
