Notes of Decisions

Applicability

The Board’s regulation at 37 Pa. Code § 73.1(a)(4) concerns second or subsequent appeals, and, therefore, is not inconsistent with the General Rules of Administrative Practice and Procedure at 1 Pa. Code § 35.241, which governs requests for reconsideration. Petitioner’s request for reconsideration was under § 35.241 and was not barred. Shaw v. Board of Probation and Parole, 812 A.2d 769 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2002).

Prosecution

Since the State Board of Nursing initiated prosecution against the licensed practical nurse by having authorized its prosecutors to take formal action against the nurse, the Board appropriately delegated the hearing of the matter to a hearing examiner. Stephens v. State Board of Nursing, 657 A.2d 71 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1995), appeal denied, 664 A.2d 978 (Pa. 1995).
