40A:9-133.5. Revocation, suspension

Any registered municipal clerk certificate may be revoked or suspended by the director for dishonest practices, or willful or intentional failure, neglect or refusal to comply with the Constitution of the State of New Jersey or laws relating to the duties of the municipal clerk, or other good cause. The governing body or chief executive officer of any municipality may request a review by the director of the practices of a registered municipal clerk. No certificate shall be revoked or suspended except upon a proper hearing before the director or his designee after due notice. If the registered municipal clerk certificate shall be revoked, such person shall be removed from office by the director, his office shall be declared vacant, and he shall not be eligible to hold that office, nor may he make application for recertification, for a period of five years from the date of the revocation.
