Section 10-145d-612a - Automatic revocation(a) When the commissioner is notified, pursuant to subsection (f) of section 17a-101 of the general statutes, that a certificate holder has been convicted of a crime referenced in said statute, all certificates issued by the board and held by the convicted certificate holder are revoked as of the date notification is received by the commissioner. Upon receipt of notice of conviction, the commissioner shall notify, by certified mail, return receipt requested, the certificate holder of the revocation and his right to file a request for reinstatement.(b) Within 15 days of receipt of the commissioner's notification, the former certificate holder may file a request for reinstatement with the board, requesting the board reconsider the revocation. A request for reinstatement shall include the name of the former certificate holder, a detailed explanation of why the former certificate holder believes the board should reinstate the certificate previously held and any other pertinent information which would be useful to the board. A copy of the request for reinstatement shall also be filed with the commissioner.(c) Within 15 days after receipt of the request for reinstatement, the Commissioner shall file with the board a statement in support of or opposition to the reinstatement. A copy of the statement shall be provided to the former certificate holder by the commissioner.(d) The board shall review the request for reinstatement and the Commissioner's statement and make a determination, within 90 days of receipt of the commissioner's statement, as to whether to reinstate the certificate. In determining whether to reinstate the certificate of the former certificate holder the board shall consider, if appropriate: the nature of the crime; the exemplary status of a certificate holder; the crime and its relationship to the education profession; the effect the crime has on the public health, safety and welfare; and whether, in the opinion of the board, reinstatement impairs the standing of other certificates issued by the board.Conn.
