What happens if a license holder is convicted of a crime?
If a license holder is convicted of a felony or a criminal offense involving fraud it is a violation of section 1101.652(a)(1) of the License Act.This section gives the Commission authority to suspend or revoke a license holder that has entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere or has been convicted of a felony or any criminal offense that involves fraud (including misdemeanors).The Commission does not have the authority to revoke or suspend a license holder that has been only charged or accused of committing a felony or criminal offense that involves fraud.A license holder is required to notify the Commission not later than the 30th day after the final conviction or the entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere. Failing to timely notify may result in more severe or further disciplinary action.All license holders’ criminal backgrounds are rechecked upon renewal, however, this does not excuse a license holder from notifying the Commission not later than the 30th day after the final conviction.

Section 535.230(2)(J)(vi)(I)of the Standards of Practice requires inspectors to report as deficient, in gas HVAC units, deficiencies in combustion, and dilution air. None of the issues you listed would necessarily be required to be reported as deficiencies; this determination depends on several factors, such as the design of the system.
All commissions must be paid through the agent’s sponsoring broker.[TRELA §1101.651(b)] Further, a business entity that receives compensation on behalf of a license holder must be licensed as a broker. [TRELA §1101.355(c)]
If the broker used a Commission promulgated form, it contains provisions permitting the broker to require the buyer and seller to agree on who gets the earnest money and to sign a release before the money is disbursed. See Rule 535.146(d) for proper procedures for handling earnest money disputes where the broker is holding the money in a trust or escrow account.
An inspector may request inactive status in writing at any time. An inspector who meets all other renewal requirements but does not show proof of insurance will receive an inactive license (which does not permit the inspector to perform inspections). To become active, a professional inspector would need to send in the Return to Active Status form (or, for apprentice or real estate inspectors, the sponsorship form) along with the applicable fee and the required proof of insurance.
No. Since the cruise would have a value greater than $50, it is defined as valuable consideration. Although entering a name into a drawing may not have a cost associated with it, whoever won the drawing would be receiving valuable consideration. In addition, a “referral” drawing may be considered a contest defined as an illegal lottery under Sections 47.01(7) & 47.03(5) of the Texas Penal Code.
