What is the penalty for a second conviction of practicing with a revoked license?

The penalty for a second conviction of practicing with a revoked license includes a fine in the range of $1000 to $2000. This reflects the legal framework in Delaware which sets specific financial penalties for repeat offenders to emphasize the gravity of practicing without a valid license. The law aims to deter individuals from engaging in this activity again, thus protecting the public and maintaining professional standards within the pharmacy practice.

This level of fine is typically associated with more serious offenses, as a second conviction indicates a disregard for prior consequences and a continued commitment to unlawful practice. Fines are often tiered to reflect the severity of the infraction, and this range aligns with the objective of holding individuals accountable for their actions while still providing a structured legal response. The focus on fines rather than imprisonment indicates a preference for financial penalties in cases of professional misconduct, particularly when it comes to regulatory violations within the Pharmacy Board's jurisdiction.
