State Board of Cosmetology declines immediate suspensions after prostitution citations at three Las Vegas establishments
Summary
At an emergency meeting the Nevada State Board of Cosmetology considered citations from law enforcement that triggered possible 15-business-day temporary suspensions for three licensed establishments and chose not to issue immediate suspensions for any of them, following staff recommendations.
The Nevada State Board of Cosmetology met Feb. 10 to consider three emergency items triggered by law-enforcement reports that cited employees at licensed establishments for solicitation of prostitution. Under Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) 644A.855, the board may issue a temporary suspension not to exceed 15 business days when law enforcement reports alleged illicit activity; at this meeting staff recommended no immediate suspensions and the board voted to follow that recommendation for all three matters.
The board’s limited role in the hearing was to decide only whether an immediate temporary suspension (a cease-and-desist) was warranted; disciplinary proceedings and administrative fines are handled through separate complaint processes. Chief compliance officer Janie Huggins and Executive Director Steve McDonald presented the facts and staff recommendations.
