N.H. Admin. Code § Arch 402.04 - Procedures for Assessing and Collecting Fines
(a)
Payment of a fine shall be included among the options available for settling
disciplinary allegations, and shall be included among the types of disciplinary
sanctions imposed after notice and hearing.
(b) In cases where the board initially
intends to limit disciplinary sanctions to an administrative fine, the board
shall issue a "notice of apparent liability" describing the alleged offense,
stating the amount of the assessed fine, and notifying the alleged offender
that he or she shall pay or compromise the fine by a date certain or request
that an administrative hearing be held. If a hearing is requested, the notice
of apparent liability shall be withdrawn and a notice of hearing shall be
issued. In such hearings, the board's disciplinary options shall not be limited
to the assessment of an administrative fine.
(c) Nonpayment of a fine by a licensee or
respondent in contravention of an order, agreement or promise to pay, shall be
a separate ground for discipline by the board or a basis for denying a
subsequent license or renewal application or a basis for judicial action
seeking to collect the fine.
