                                                                        JAN 1 0 2023

                                                                    Clerk cf Suprerne Court
                                                                       State of Montana

      v.
                                                                     ORDER
MONTANA BOARD OF DENTISTRY and
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND INDUSTRY,

             Respondent and Appellee.

       Representing himself, Appellant Rick Miller (Miller) has filed a Petition for
Rehearing of this Court's Memorandum Opinion issued on December 6, 2022. Respondents
have filed a response and object to Miller's request.
       Under M. R. App. P. 20, this Court seldom grants petitions for rehearing. The Rule
makes clear that this Court will entertain a petition for rehearing on very limited grounds.
Specifically, this Court will consider a petition for rehearing only if the opinion "overlooked
some fact material to the decision," if the opinion "overlooked some question presented by
counsel that would have proven decisive to the case," or if the "decision conflicts with a
statute or controlling decision not addressed" by this Court. M. R. App. P. 20(a)(i)-(iii).
       Having fully considered Appellant's petition, the Court concludes that rehearing is not
warranted under M. R. App. P. 20. The Court did not overlook material facts or issues raised
by the parties or fail to address a controlling statute or decision that conflicts with the
Memorandum Opinion issued in this matter.           Further, to the extent Miller raises a
constitutional due process claim in this Petition based on tribal licensure, that claim was not
raised or presented in the District Court or on appeal. All other constitutional issues were
properly determined by this Court.
       IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the petition for rehearing is DENIED.
The Clerk is directed to provide copies of this Order to all parties and counsel of record.
       Dated this IL)    day ofJanuary„,2023. .
