S.D. Admin. R. 20:04:01:29
After hearing the evidence and reaching a decision that the complaint has been proven, the commission may revoke the license, may suspend the license for a particular period of time, may issue a public or private letter of reprimand to be placed in the file of the licensee, or may take any combination of these actions. If the complaint has not been proved, the commission must dismiss the complaint or the parts of the complaint not proved. A letter of reprimand must state the actions against which a complaint was filed with the names, dates, places, and a list of witnesses involved in the complaint. This section does not prevent the commission from compromising a formal hearing, and the commission may also allow an assurance of voluntary compliance. Written findings of fact, conclusions of law, and an order must be entered after the decision. The commission may allow or require briefs of law before making its decision.
