If a county medical examiner, deputy countymedical examiner,
countymedical examiner investigator, pathologist, or other physician fails to
comply with these rules, the state medical examiner may provide written notice
of the failure to comply to that individual, the appropriate countymedical
examiner, and the appropriate county board of supervisors. Within 30 days of
the date of the notice, the individual to whom the notice was provided shall
submit a written response to the state medical examiner, outlining a proposed
corrective action plan. If no response is received within the 30 days or if the
proposed corrective action plan is unacceptable, the state medical examiner
shall forward copies of the notice and all pertinent correspondence and
information to the board of supervisors for the county which appointed the
individual, notifying the board of the individual's failure to comply with
these rules.
