§ 43-07-04.1. Denial, suspension, or revocation of license - Eligibility

1. The registrar may deny any application for license, deny any application for renewal of license, or suspend or revoke any license, based on the applicant's or licensee's lack of eligibility to act in the capacity of a contractor, upon proof of one or more of the following: a. The application for a license contains false or misleading information; b. The applicant or licensee has been convicted of an offense that has direct bearing upon the applicant's or licensee's ability to serve the public as a contractor; or c. The licensee or applicant has engaged in conduct as a contractor which is dishonest or fraudulent and which the registrar finds injurious to the welfare of the public. 2. Notwithstanding subdivision b of subsection 1, conviction of an offense does not make a person ineligible for licensure under this chapter unless, following conviction of any offense, the person is not sufficiently rehabilitated under section 12.1-33-02.1. 3. Any applicant denied a license or denied renewal of a license may appeal the decision to the district court of the applicant's county of residence or Burleigh County. 4. Section 43-07-15 applies to any decision by the registrar to revoke or suspend a license.
