Section LIV-349 - Commission of a Felony [Formerly Section 327]

A. As used in R.S. 37:2420.A (4) of the Practice Act, a "felony" is a crime defined as such under the laws of the US, or of any state. The term "convicted", as applied to a licensed PT or PTA, or an applicant for such license is a judgment entered against such person by a court of competent jurisdiction on the basis of a finding or verdict of guilty or a plea of guilty or nolo contendere. Such a judgment provides cause for administrative action by the board so long as it has not been reversed by an appellate court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding that an appeal or other application for relief from such judgment may be pending.
