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 16, 1975, in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.

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 Alexandro Ronca and Sandro di Roma, Inc. d/b/a Sandro di Roma Hair Salon on the grounds that on October 23, 1974, he did allow Joyce Hrysenko to work on a person in his salon without having 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. Mr. Ronca was not present at the hearing but submitted an election of remedies form subscribed and sworn to on June 6, 1975, in which he pleaded no contest. He further stated that Sandro di Roma Hair Salon has been sold.

An investigator for the Board visited the di Roma Hair Salon on the basis of the complaint by a Fort Lauderdale operator that he had employees without Florida cosmetology licenses. On his arrival at the salon, Mr. Ronca was not present, but the inspector found Mrs. Hrysenko without a certificate in the process of combing out a patron's hair, and the violation was issued.

Subsequent thereto, Mrs. Hrysenko has obtained a license. The inspector had received no evidence that the shop has been sold.

Based on the foregoing, the hearing officer concludes that Alexandro Ronca is guilty as charged. Inasmuch as this appears to be the first violation of the Sandro di Roma Hair Salon, it is therefore

RECOMMENDED that Alexandro Ronca be issued a letter of reprimand. DONE and ENTERED this 3rd day of July, 1975.
