Depends on the grounds of the denial. The officer was supposed to explain the reason. After the bar is served, provided there are no other applicable bars, the person may apply for visa.

You can apply after the 10 year period. But you may still be denied if the consular officer finds that you are inadmissible under any other provision of law, such as if you apply for a tourist visa but the officer suspects your intention is to stay permanently or to look for work.
