Letter from Attorney General - I'm Being Investigated

[Lorie Brown RN, MN, JD]

I have received a letter from the attorney general that I am being investigated. It says that I am to respond within 20 days of the date of the letter. Can I request more time to respond so that I am able to acquire legal advice and/or representation?

Dear Being Being Investigated

I'm sorry that you received a letter from the Attorney General. In the letters I am familiar with, it states that you have the right to an attorney at your own expense. Right there in the letter, the Attorney General is telling you that you are entitled to representation. If you need more time to obtain legal assistance, by all means ask for more time. I don't know whether it will be given but you certainly have the right to ask. That's what attorneys do when they're newly involved in a case, they always ask for more time.

Good luck with your matters.

Hello, so I graduated with my Associate degree in nursing in November 2018. I had applied to take my NCLEX since then. Initially I was denied, I had to appeal the BRN's decision and finally was given the "okay" to test under certain conditions. I was only going to be allowed to take the NCLEX one time and I was not going to find out my official results until the whole appeal process is over.

I took my NCLEX on May 29, 2019 (I'm pretty confident that I passed, according to the pearson vue trick and the fact that I studied my butt off for months) I just received some paperwork this week from the Attorney General office and will be requesting a hearing to hopefully mediate with the CA BRN in hopes to finally get my license, and hopefully without restrictions.

My conviction was Wet Reckless with a collision. I hit a parked vehicle so ashamed for the mistake that I made, but definitely learned from it. Do you know what may possibly happen next....? im so lost.

I would strongly suggest you hire an attorney. They allowed you to test and now they are deciding if any sanctions should be put on your license.
