36-21A-68. Grounds for revocation of license--Criminal prosecution--Setting minimum fees not impaired--Suspension, reprimand, and monetary penalties. A license issued under this chapter may be revoked by the commission upon proof of unprofessional conduct on the part of the licensee. For the purposes of this chapter, the term unprofessional conduct does not impair the right of a licensee to set minimum fees chargeable for his services. Unprofessional conduct is not the basis for criminal prosecution unless otherwise declared unlawful. The commission may also impose a suspension, reprimand, or a monetary penalty not to exceed two thousand five hundred dollars, or a combination of revocation, suspension, reprimand or monetary penalty. Any moneys collected from the monetary penalty shall be deposited into the fund of the commission.
