A spokesperson for the board told TheWrap that license suspension is standard operating procedure for doctors who've been convicted of felonies.
Murray can appeal the decision within those 15 days -- a distinct possibility, since he's also appealed his criminal conviction. Should Murray file an appeal, the board would set up a hearing on the matter.
Murray was also licensed to practice medicine in Nevada and Texas. In April 2010, the Texas Medical Board restricted Murray's license, prohibiting him from administering anesthetic agents, including propofol, which was found to have killed Jackson. The Nevada Board of Medical Examiners has also suspended his license.
