California CodesBusiness and Professions Code - BPCDivision 2 — Healing ArtsChapter 7 — OptometryArticle 7 — RevenueSection 3147.5

A license that has been suspended is subject to expiration and shall be renewed as provided in this article, but renewal does not entitle the holder of a suspended license to engage in the practice of optometry, or in any other activity or conduct in violation of the order or judgment by which the license was suspended.

A license that has been revoked is subject to expiration, but it may not be renewed. If a revoked license is reinstated after it has expired, a reinstatement fee of 150 percent of the renewal fee shall be assessed.

Notes

Limits renewal consequences for disciplined licenses: a suspended license remains subject to expiration and renewal, but renewal does not authorize practice contrary to the suspension order, while a revoked license may expire but cannot be renewed. If a revoked license is reinstated after expiration, the holder must pay a reinstatement fee equal to 150 percent of the renewal fee.
