Louisiana Revised Statutes Tit. 17, § 407.68. Revocation or refusal of registration; appeal procedure

Upon the refusal of the department to grant or renew a registration or upon the revocation of a registration, the family child care provider or in-home provider having been refused a registration or renewal or having had a registration revoked shall have the right to appeal such action to the division of administrative law by submitting a written request for an appeal to the department within thirty calendar days after receipt of the notification of the refusal or revocation. The department shall notify the division of administrative law within ten calendar days of receipt of a request for an appeal and the appeal hearing shall be held no later than thirty calendar days after such notice, with an administrative ruling no later than thirty calendar days from the date of the hearing. This provision shall in no way preclude the right of the party to seek relief through mandamus suit against the department, as provided by law.
