Abstract

This article examines the procedural rights to notice and hearing that the U.S. and Texas Constitutions and the Texas statutes provide to a licensed professional when the professional is the respondent in a license revocation or suspension proceeding brought by the professional’s licensing agency. In doing so, the article comments on recent decisions of the Supreme Court of Texas and the Third Court of Appeals affecting those rights.
