AI Summary

  • Adds two new grounds for denying peace officer license applications or entry into basic training: applicants whose peace officer license was permanently revoked or surrendered, and applicants who are not U.S. citizens

  • Director may deny applications or grant them subject to probation when cause exists, with written notification of reasons and appeal rights required

  • Aggrieved applicants may appeal to the administrative hearing commission within 30 days; failure to submit written request within this timeframe waives appeal rights

  • Administrative hearing commission is prohibited from considering the severity of denial cause or any rehabilitation of the applicant when reviewing director's decisions

  • Amends Section 590.100, RSMo, renumbering existing subsections to accommodate the new denial grounds
