The issue in this case is whether the crime of which Petitioner was convicted in the District of Columbia, namely simple assault under that jurisdiction's law, directly relates to the activities of a real estate sales associate, thereby warranting Respondent's intended decision to deny Petitioner's application for licensure as a sales associate.Petitioner's past conviction in the District of Columbia for simple assault is not directly related to the activities of a real estate sales associate and thus is not grounds for denial of Petitioner's application for licensure.
