Section 338.1552. Investigative conferences.

The department, after investigation, may request a licensee to appear at such investigative  conference  as  is  necessary  to  determine whether there is cause for complaint which would require a hearing  on,  or dismissal of, the complaint. Notice of a request for a conference shall be in writing and mailed to the address appearing on the license not less than 10 days before the conference and shall set the time  and place of the conference. The notice shall be recorded in the file at the time of mailing. Persons interested shall have the right to appear and be represented by counsel. Failure by an individual licensee  or  qualifying officer of a licensee to appear for the conference may be  a  basis   for suspension, revocation or denial of a license. The department may grant an adjournment if requested by any party to the complaint if the  request   is made at least 5 days prior to the date assigned for the conference.
