[CLC-Discussion] Judgments/Licensure

[Paul J. Kelly]

Committee Members:

 

     I have a client who has a New York State Judgment (six figures+)
against a NY electrical contracting business and former NY resident. 

 

     NY resident has now relocated to Florida and recently became a Florida
licensed electrical contractor and Florida resident.

 

    I would like to collect on the judgment and believe the individual
should not have received his license with the outstanding judgment. I have
not yet deposed the individual to see if the judgment was disclosed on the
license application.  ( I know there is an affirmative duty to disclose
criminal convictions but I am not sure how civil judgments, particularly
those resulting from construction projects, impact a licensee) It is my
understanding that persons who are not financially responsible (ie: Paying a
judgment in a construction lawsuit) could be denied a license.

 

   At a minimum, I would like to make a complaint to the CILB that while the
construction judgment remains unpaid, this person is a danger to Florida's
construction industry and therefore should not be licensed.

 

   Any thoughts are appreciated. Thank you.

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Paul J. Kelly
