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.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> 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.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> Any thoughts are appreciated.
