California Codes, Business and Professions Code - BPC, Division 1 — Department of Consumer Affairs, Chapter 1 — The Department, Section 141

(a) For any licensee holding a license issued by a board under the jurisdiction of the department, a disciplinary action taken by another state, by any agency of the federal government, or by another country for any act substantially related to the practice regulated by the California license, may be a ground for disciplinary action by the respective state licensing board. A certified copy of the record of the disciplinary action taken against the licensee by another state, an agency of the federal government, or another country shall be conclusive evidence of the events related therein.

(b) Nothing in this section shall preclude a board from applying a specific statutory provision in the licensing act administered by that board that provides for discipline based upon a disciplinary action taken against the licensee by another state, an agency of the federal government, or another country.

Notes

Allows a department licensing board to discipline a licensee based on discipline by another state, the federal government, or another country for conduct substantially related to the California-regulated practice. Makes a certified disciplinary record conclusive evidence of the reported events and preserves any more specific practice-act authority for discipline based on foreign or out-of-state action.
