(b) Any person may prefer charges as set forth above against any licensee. Such charges shall be in writing and shall be sworn to by the person making them and shall be filed with the secretary of the appropriate Board. All charges unless dismissed by such Board as unfounded or trivial shall be heard by the Board after completing any necessary investigation. The time and place for the hearing shall be fixed by the Board and a copy of the charges together with a notice of the time and place of hearing shall be personally served on or mailed to the last known address of the licensee at least fifteen (15) days before the date fixed for the hearing. At any hearing the accused licensee shall have the right to appear personally and by counsel to cross-examine witnesses appearing against him and to produce evidence and witnesses in his own defense. No license shall be suspended or revoked except upon the agreement of at least three (3) members of the appropriate Board.

(d) Any person aggrieved by an action of a Board in revoking, suspending, or refusing to issue his license may appeal such action to any court of competent jurisdiction in the Virgin Islands within thirty (30) days after the date of such action. No such appeal may stay the action complained of unless specifically ordered by the court.
(e) Upon appeal every finding, decision, and determination by the Board as to questions of fact shall be deemed final in the absence of conclusive showing to the court of fraud or that it was arbitrary.
