Section 160. Status of license during the period prior to reinstatement

A. When a licensee is reinstated, the license shall continue to have the same license number and shall be assigned an expiration date two years from the previous expiration date of the license, which is the expiration date assigned to all licenses at the time the license is reinstated.

B. A licensee who reinstates his license shall be regarded as having been continually licensed without interruption. Therefore, the licensee shall remain under the disciplinary authority of the board during the entire period and may be held accountable for his activities during this period. Nothing in this chapter shall divest the board of its authority to discipline a licensee for a violation of the law or regulations during the period of licensure.
