641—33.40 (17A,272C) Reinstatement.
	 33.40(1) The term “reinstatement,” as used in this rule, includes both the reinstatement of a suspended license and the issuance of a new license following the revocation or voluntary surrender of a license.
	 33.40(2) Any person whose license has been revoked or suspended by the board, or who voluntarily surrendered a license in a disciplinary proceeding, may apply to the board for reinstatement in accordance with the terms of the order of revocation or suspension, or order accepting the voluntary surrender.
	 33.40(3) Unless otherwise provided by law, if the order of revocation or suspension did not establish terms upon which reinstatement might occur, or if the license was voluntarily surrendered, an initial application for reinstatement may not be made until at least one year has elapsed from the date of the order or the date the board accepted the voluntary surrender of a license.
	 33.40(4) All proceedings for reinstatement shall be initiated by the respondent, who shall file with the board an application for reinstatement of the respondent’s license. Such application shall be docketed in the original case in which the license was revoked, suspended, or relinquished. All proceedings upon the petition for reinstatement, including the matters preliminary and ancillary thereto, shall be subject to the same rules of procedure as other cases before the board.
	 33.40(5) An application for reinstatement shall allege facts which, if established, will be sufficient to enable the board to determine that the basis of revocation, suspension or voluntary surrender of the respondent’s license no longer exists and that it will be in the public interest for the license to be reinstated. Compliance with rule 641—33.31(17A,272C) must also be established. The burden of proof to establish such facts shall be on the respondent.
	 33.40(6) An order of reinstatement shall be based upon a decision which incorporates findings of fact and conclusions of law and must be based upon the affirmative vote of not fewer than a majority of the board. This order shall be published as provided for in subrule 33.30(1).
