RECOMMENDED ORDER

Pursuant to notice, the Division of Administrative Hearings by its duly designated hearing officer, K. N. Ayers, held a public hearing on the above matter on June 17, 1975, in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl.

APPEARANCES: Ronald C. LaFace, Post Office Box 1752, Tallahassee, Florida, for the Board of Cosmetology.

By this complaint the Florida State Board of Cosmetology seeks to revoke, annul, withdraw, or suspend the license of Nathan Grossman d/b/a Vanity Fair Beauty Salon on the grounds that on March 8, 1975, he did allow Carmen Ramirez and Antoinette Rome to practice cosmetology in his salon without a Florida Cosmetology License in violation of Section 477.02 (6), Florida Statutes.

Exhibit 1, receipt for Notice of Hearing sent by certified mail, was admitted into evidence.

On an Election of Remedies form subscribed and sworn to on June 6, 1975, Mr. Grossman admitted the facts as alleged are true but indicated they did not constitute a violation of the law. In his letter of explanation which accompanied the plea he stated that he had purchased the shop upon his recent arrival in the State of Florida and was not aware that the two operators in question, each of whom had a license from another state and had applied to take the Florida exam, were not eligible to operate until they had received their license.

The investigator for the Board acknowledged that Mr. Grossman had been very cooperative and was in fact unknowledgeable of the Florida law at the time of the commission of the alleged violation.

From the foregoing, it is concluded that Nathan Grossman d/b/a Vanity Fair Beauty Salon is guilty as alleged. In view of the mitigating circumstances, it is therefore,

RECOMMENDED that Mr. Nathan Grossman d/b/a Vanity Fair Beauty Salon be issued a letter of admonition.

ENTERED this 3rd day of July, 1975 in Tallahassee, Florida.
