Hearing; determination; order

A. The person excluded or ejected may demand a public administrative hearing by giving to the commission written notice of his exclusion or ejection within ten calendar days after its occurrence, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, or legal holidays. Upon receipt of the notice of the aggrieved person, the commission shall call and hold a hearing at the next regular meeting of the commission which is held not sooner than fifteen days after receipt of such notice. If the aggrieved person requests an expedited hearing, the hearing shall be set not less than ten days after the receipt of the request for the expedited hearing, and if the commission does not hold the hearing within ten days, the aggrieved person may proceed with his other legal remedies as provided in this Chapter. If the commission and the person demanding a hearing mutually agree, the hearing may be held at any time. B. The commission, upon the evidence received at the hearing and the merits of the testimony, shall determine whether the person was lawfully excluded or ejected in accordance with its rules and regulations provided for in R.S. 4:193, and shall enter its decision in its record of official proceedings. It shall be the responsibility of the owner or officer to show that the person was excluded or ejected in accordance with such rules and regulations. C. If the determination of the commission is that the action to exclude or eject was lawful, the commission shall order the person excluded or ejected for a specified time from all race tracks, race meetings, races, or licensed establishments that are under the commission's regulatory powers. If the commission determines that the exclusion or ejection was unlawful, the commission shall order the owner or officer of the race track, association, or licensed establishment to allow said person to enter the premises and participate in any race. All orders shall be subject to review by a court of competent jurisdiction.
