  • RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
    61G18-11.002: Examination and Licensure
    The Board of Veterinary Medicine hereby gives notice:
    of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance which was filed on July 28, 2011, by Rita Montano. The Notice of Petition for Variance/Waiver was published in Vol. 37, No. 33, of the August 19, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. Petitioner sought a waiver or variance from subsection 61G18-11.002(4), Florida Administrative Code, entitled, “Examination and Licensure,” which requires that in order to obtain licensure, the candidate must receive a passing score on each portion of the examination. The candidate must receive a score of 425 on the NAVLE. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held September 1, 2011, in St. Augustine, Florida.
    The Board’s Order, filed on September 23, 2011, granted the petition, finding Petitioner had demonstrated that application of the rule to her circumstances would violate the principles of fairness and would impose a substantial hardship on her.
    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting:
    Juanita Chastain, Executive Director, Board of Veterinary Medicine, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0750.
