(A) Acts or omissions by a licensee causing the denial, cancellation, revocation, suspension, or restriction of a license to practice in another state, which would constitute misconduct in this State, support the issuance of a formal complaint and the commencement of disciplinary proceedings.
(B) Proof of acts or omissions in another state may be shown by a copy of the transcript of record of the disciplinary proceedings in that state or a copy of the final order, consent order, or similar order stating the basis for the action taken.
(C) Upon the filing of an application or an initial complaint alleging that the applicant or licensee has been disciplined in another state, the applicant or licensee must provide to the department copies of all transcripts, documents, and orders used, relied upon, or issued by the licensing authority in the other state. Failure to provide these items within ninety days of a written request results in the denial of the individual's application or suspension of the individual's authorization to practice in this State until these items have been provided to the department and until further order of the board.
(D) The applicant or licensee may present mitigating testimony to the board or hearing officer or hearing panel regarding disciplinary action taken in another state or evidence that the acts or omissions committed in another state do not constitute misconduct in this State.
