A license to manufacture, possess, transfer or transport a drug precursor under Section 7 [30-31B-7 NMSA 1978] of the Drug Precursor Act may be suspended or revoked upon a finding that the registrant has:(1) furnished false or fraudulent material information in any application filed with the board;(2) been convicted of a felony under any state or federal law relating to a controlled substance or drug precursor;(3) had his federal registration to manufacture, distribute or dispense controlled substances or drug precursors suspended or revoked; or(4) violated any rule or regulation of the board with regard to drug precursors or controlled substances or any provision of the Drug Precursor Act or the Controlled Substances Act [Chapter 30, Article 31 NMSA 1978].B. A hearing to revoke or suspend a license shall be held by a special hearing panel consisting of the board and two additional persons designated by the board to sit on the hearing panel.C. The special hearing panel may limit revocation or suspension of a license to the particular drug precursor if grounds for revocation or suspension exist.D. If the special hearing panel suspends or revokes a license, all drug precursors owned or possessed by the licensee at the time of suspension or the effective date of the revocation may be placed under seal. No disposition may be made of substances under seal until the time for taking an appeal has elapsed or until all appeals have been concluded, unless a court, upon application, orders the sale or destruction of perishable or dangerous substances and the deposit of the proceeds of any sale with the court.E. Upon a revocation order becoming final, the board may apply to the court for an order to sell or destroy all drug precursors under seal. The court shall order the sale or destruction of such drug precursors under such terms and conditions that the court deems appropriate.F. The board shall promptly notify the bureau of all orders suspending or revoking licenses.G. The standard of proof necessary to revoke or suspend a license under this section shall be a preponderance of the evidence. The rules of evidence are not strictly applicable to a hearing under this section and all evidentiary matters are to be finally determined by the special hearing panel.
