State, and the Treasurer shall make a report in detail to the Governor of
the State each year.
Any person practicing or attempting to practice osteopathy under the
name of any other person, whether that person be a resident of this State
or not, or whether he or she be deceased or not, or any person acting under
the name of and as agent of any other person, in the capacity of a practi-
tioner of osteopathy, shall be guilty of misdemeanor, and upon conviction
by any Court having criminal jurisdiction shall be punished by imprison-
ment in the City or County jail for not less than thirty days nor more than
one year, or by a fine of not less than twenty dollars nor more than five
hundred dollars, or both, in the discretion of the Court, for each offense.
The Board of Osteopathic Examiners of this State, may by a vote of
three, members, revoke any license which it has issued, and may cause the
name of any physician licensed by said Board to be removed from the
register of licentiates of the City or County where it may be recorded for
any of the following causes; to wit: The use of fraud or deception in pass-
ing the examination provided in this sub-title, habitual drunkenness, crim-
inal abortion, conviction of crime involving moral turpitude or unpro-
fessional or dishonorable conduct. Before proceeding to revoke any such
license, the person against whom complaint is made shall be furnished with
a copy of the complaint and charges made against him, and shall be given
an opportunity for a hearing before the board, in person or by attorney,
and at such hearing testimony may be offered for and against the accused.
The action of the board shall be reduced to writing, stating also the reasons
for said action, and a copy thereof shall be delivered or mailed to the person
against whom complaint is made; within sixty days after said notice of
revocation of license shall have been delivered or mailed to any person
said party shall have the right of appeal to the Circuit Court of the City or
County wherein he may reside the judge or judges of which said Court
shall fully hear and determine all matters connected with the action of said
board from which appeal is taken, and the decision of said Court shall be
final; should no such appeal be taken within sixty days, or should said
appeal result in the affirmation of the action of said Board, the Clerk of the
Circuit Court or Courts where said license so revoked shall have been
recorded shall, upon due notice from the Secretary-Treasurer of said board,
strike off the name of said party from the list of licensed practitioners
recorded upon said register. At any time within two years from the revoca-
tion of any license the board revoking the same may, by a vote of three mem-
bers, issue without examination a new license to the person whose license
was so revoked; but after the expiration of two years such person can obtain
a new license only by compliance with the same requirements which are
imposed on other applicants for license under this sub-title.
