Findings Of Fact Respondent, Hillard J. Meinstein, is the holder of real estate salesman license number 0174789 issued by petitioner, Department of Professional Regulation, Florida Real Estate Commission. The license was issued on September 1, 1981 and remains current as of this date. On or about March 16, 1982 the circuit court for Hillsborough County, Florida entered an order accepting a plea of nolo contendere from one Hillard J. Meinstein for the offense of conspiracy to traffic in cocaine. Adjudication of guilt was withheld and Meinstein was placed on probation for 15 years and required to pay a $10,000 fine to the Hillsborough Country Sheriff's Office within one year after date of sentence. A certified copy of the order has been received in evidence as petitioner's exhibit 3. It was not disclosed whether the respondent and the defendant in the above case were the same individuals. On April 30, 1982 the supervisor for application certification of the then Board of Real Estate wrote the sheriff of Hillsborough County and requested him to search his records to determine if a Hillard Jeffrey Meinstein had been arrested by his agency for various charges including conspiracy to traffic in cocaine. The letter also indicated that Hillard Jeffrey Meinstein was an applicant for licensure as a real estate salesman. The response of the sheriff, if any, was not disclosed.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is RECOMMENDED that the administrative complaint be DISMISSED with prejudice.

Findings Of Fact During times material to the allegations of the administrative complaints filed herein, the Respondents were registered real estate salesmen in the employ of Theodore Dorwin, a registered real estate broker, and at all times material herein, Darwin was the active firm member broker for Intermart, Inc. Raymond Lewis, a salesman employed by Dorwin during the period December, 1975 through mid February, 1976, as a real estate salesman, was initially employed by Florida Landowners Service Bureau. During mid February, 1976, he testified that the name Florida Landowners Service Bureau was changed to Intermart, Inc., and that approximately during this period, he left the employ of Intermart, Inc. He testified that the offices were situated on northwest 79th Street, which consisted of a large room containing six cubicles where salesmen manned the telephones in the cubicles during the hours of approximately 6:00PM through 10:30PM during week days and during the early afternoon and evening hours on weekends. Salesmen were given lead cards which were apparently compiled from the county tax rolls from which a list was given containing out of state landowners. Employees, based on a "pitch" card called out of state land owners to determine their interest in selling their property. He described the procedure as a "front" when an out of state landowner was called to determine interest in selling their land. The "close" procedure was a method whereby those property owners who had displayed some interest in selling their properties were mailed a packet of materials which, among other things, contained a listing agreement. Salespersons were compensated approximately $100 to $125 for each listing secured by an executed listing agreement which in most instances represented approximately one third of the listing fee. During the course of a normal day, salesmen would contact approximately thirty landowners and they would be given estimates of the prospective selling price of their land based on the location of the property and the length of time that the owner had held it. The testimony of Lewis, which is representative of that given by later witnesses including Jeffrey Barker, August Graser, David Cotton and Henry Halar (all salesmen employed by Dorwin) reveals that property owners were called to determine their interest and if interest was noted, follow-up calls would be made after a packet of materials was sent to interested landowners. After a listing arrangement was obtained, salesmen were compensated by payment of an amount representing approximately one-third of the listing fee. In the case of a listing fee obtained by two or more salespersons, the fee (commission) was divided according to the number of salespersons instrumental in obtaining the listing. Each salesman who testified indicated that they made no guarantee that a sale would be consummated within a definite period nor were they familiar, in any particulars, with the brokerage efforts to sell the properties of owners who listed their property with Intermart. Theodore Dorwin, the active firm member broker for Intermart, Inc., was subpoenaed and testified that he had no copies of the records which were subpoenaed showing the operations of Intermart, Inc. In this regard, Raymond Lewis also testified that he had no corporate records respecting Intermart. Both witnesses testified that all corporate records of Intermart had been subpoenaed and were in the custody of the Attorney General for more than one year. Dorwin refused to give any testimony respecting the operational workings of Intermart, Inc., based on fifth amendment self incrimination grounds. The Commission's counsel took the position during the course of the hearing that Mr. Dorwin had waived any and all fifth amendment rights or privileges by virtue of having personally testified in a similar matter before the Florida Real Estate Commission in a proceeding undertaken to revoke or suspend his license as a real estate broker. Having voluntarily taken the stand in that proceeding, the Commission concludes that he is not now entitled to any fifth amendment protections. As evidence of Mr. Dorwin's having voluntarily taken the stand in the prior proceeding, excerpts of the testimony from that proceeding was introduced into evidence. (See FREC Exhibit number 8). Having considered the legal authorities and the arguments of counsel, the undersigned is of the opinion that testimony given by a party in a separate proceeding to which the Respondents were not party to and of which the Respondents had no notice of cannot serve in lieu of evidence on which findings of fact can be based to substantiate allegations pending in the instant case. To do so, would possibly leave open the door for highly prejudicial and damaging testimony to which the Respondents here had no opportunity to rebut, cross examine or otherwise explain, all of which is inherently destructive of their basic rights, fairness and fundamental due process. The cases of Hargis v. FREC 174 So.2d 419 and Vann, 85 So.2d 133 are not deemed inapposite to the conclusion reached here. The fact that the State's Attorney General is currently conducting an investigation into the operations of Intermart makes clear that the possibility of criminal action or other sanctions exist (e.g. tax problems). For these reasons, I conclude that Dorwin's testimony in a prior proceeding, amounts to no waiver of his constitutional privilege. For these reasons, exhibit number 8 will not be considered as evidence herein. Having so concluded, the record is barren of any evidence, hearsay or otherwise, which would tend to establish in a competent and substantial manner, that the Respondents herein had engaged in conduct alleged as violative of Chapter 475.25, Florida Statutes.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is: RECOMMENDED that the administrative complaints filed herein be dismissed in their entirety. RECOMMENDED this 18th day of October, 1977, in Tallahassee, Florida. JAMES E. BRADWELL Hearing Officer Division of Administrative Hearings 530 Carlton Building Tallahassee, Florida 32304 (904) 488-9675
Findings Of Fact Respondent is now and was at all relevant times to this proceeding a registered real estate salesman. On October 10, 1973, pursuant to his plea of guilty, respondent was convicted by the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida, Judge Peter T. Fay, of the offense of knowingly and intentionally possessing with intent to distribute marijuana, a Schedule I controlled substance, in violation of Title 21, United States Code, Section 841(a)(1). On January 29, 1974, another judgment and commitment was entered for the sane count changing the terms of the sentence imposed. (Exhibits 3 and 4). By an information filed by the Florida Real Estate Commission, respondent was charged with violating F.S. Section 475.25(1)(e) in that he had been guilty of a crime against the laws of the United States involving moral turpitude. On February 7, 1975, respondent, through his attorney Howard Friedin, filed his answer to the information. On October 6, 1975, the Division of Administrative Hearing sent to the attorneys for petitioner and for respondent its notice of hearing to be held on November 4, 1975. The Executive Director of the Florida Real Estate Commission also forwarded the notice of hearing by registered/certified mail to the respondent's attorney on October 15, 1975. (Exhibit 1) Sometime prior to the hearing, the attorney for the respondent notified the Real Estate commission that respondent had left the State of Florida with the intention not to return and that he no longer represented respondent. It was not clear whether respondent himself had received actual notice of the hearing. Respondent did rot appear at the hearing.
Recommendation Based upon the above findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is recommended that respondent's registration as a real estate salesman be suspended for a period of two years. Respectfully submitted and entered this 10th day of December, 1975, in Tallahassee, Florida. DIANE D.

Findings Of Fact The Respondent, Gary R. Berkson, is a licensed real estate salesman, holding license No. 034697. From September 27, 1980, until May of 1983, the Respondent as a salesman working as an independent contractor for Act Now Real Estate, Inc., a corporate broker whose active qualifying brokers and officers were Robert F. Picheny and Thelma R. Sarkas. Robert F. Picheny was subpoenaed and requested to bring with him the records of Act Now Real Estate, Inc., showing the disbursement of commissions to the Respondent. These records did not contain any entries relating to rental transactions involving the persons named in the complaint as having paid commissions to the Respondent. The only lease offered and received in evidence was between Samuel Schnur, as lessor, and lessees named Davis and Johnston. Samuel Schnur, presented as one of the Petitioner's witnesses, did not pay a rental commission to the Respondent in connection with this lease. Another lease transaction where the Respondent was alleged to have received rental commissions was between Sami Elmasri, as landlord, and Donald Bauerle, as tenant. Sami Elmasri, presented as another of the Petitioner's witnesses, testified that he paid a $300 commission, but that this was not paid to the Respondent. This commission was paid to another salesman, Wendy Corman. The final witness for the Petitioner, except for the Respondent, was Wendy Corman. She showed Mr. Elmasri's property to persons wishing to rent through a lead given by the Respondent. She was paid a $300 commission by Mr. Elmasri. The Respondent did not receive any of this commission. The Petitioner's final witness was the Respondent, who testified that he never received a commission for rental property. The only money he received in connection with rental properties was a management fee he received on some properties owned by Richard Jacobson. This fee was in payment for management services consisting of arranging for repairs to the properties such as painting it, repairs to the plumbing and the garage door, and being available to tenants with problems in the absence of the owner. These management fees continued even after the Respondent left Act Now Real Estate, Inc., until Mr. Jacobson assumed the management duties himself.
Recommendation Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED that the Administrative Complaint filed against the Respondent, Gary R. Berkson, be DISMISSED. This Recommended Order entered this 13th day of June, 1984, in Tallahassee, Florida. WILLIAM B. THOMAS Hearing Officer Division of Administrative Hearings The Oakland Building 2009 Apalachee Parkway Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1550 (904) 488-9675 Filed with the Clerk of the Division of Administrative Hearings this 13th day of June, 1984.
Findings Of Fact Charles E. Richmond applied for registration as a real estate salesman in 1971, filing his application dated December 23, 1971, and received by the agency on December 30, 1971, said application being received as Exhibit 1. In 1974, Richmond applied for registration as a broker-salesman filing an application with the agency, said application being introduced as Exhibit 2. The charges in the Administrative Complaint relate to alleged fraud and concealment in these applications. The basis for the charges contained in paragraphs 7 and 8 of the Complaint was that Richmond's 1974 application apparently indicates a traffic violation received in 1971, which had not been reported in the 1971 application. The Hearing Officer finds that regarding the allegations, there were seven days remaining in 1971 after the preparation of Richmond's application within which time Richmond could have received the ticket referred to in the 1974 application. However, more importantly, the 1974 application indicates on its face some doubt, in the applicant's mind regarding the year in which the ticket was received. Richmond qualified his response in the 1974 registration relative to the date the first ticket was received. The Florida Real Estate Commission has not presented any evidence to factually resolve the question. The Hearing Officer finds there is no conflict between the 1971 and 1974 application, no proof of any evasion regarding the tickets, and certainly no proof of the actual failure to reveal a traffic offense on the 1971 application. Paragraphs 8(a) and 9 charge that in 1974 Richmond concealed the fact of his arrest and plea to contributing to the delinquency of a minor in 1972. The Florida Real Estate Commission alleges that said concealment shows that Richmond lacks the necessary qualifications of honesty, truthfulness, trustworthiness and good character required by Section 475.17(1), Florida Statutes, and that Richmond obtained both his registrations as a salesman and as a broker-salesman by means of fraud, misrepresentation, and concealment in violation of Subsection 475.25(2), Florida Statutes. Regarding the contention that Richmond received his 1971 registration a salesman by fraud and misrepresentation, there is no evidence that Richmond falsified any portion of his 1971 application. The arrest and plea to contributing to the delinquency of a minor did not occur until 1972, and the question of the traffic violation was dealt with above. Concerning concealment on the 1974 application, the Florida Real Estate Commission introduced Exhibits 1, 2, 3, and 4 which show Richmond's registration as a salesman and broker-salesman and his arrest and plea to an offense against the laws of Florida. Richmond testified that his arrest had been upon the complaint of a co-worker of his when he attempted to assist the co-worker's daughter, who had graduated from high school and who was working full time, move our of her parents' home into an apartment. Richmond stated that he had felt he was not guilty of any wrong doing but had entered a plea on the advise of Counsel and upon his representation that this would not become a matter of record. Richmond stated he knew that he had been arrested and had pled guilty to the charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, but felt that to report this on his application would record an incident which he felt was not of record. Richmond further indicated that he felt this was damaging to his reputation in the community, which apparently from the testimony of his employer, Earlene Cooper Usry, was good. Richmond stated his concern specifically with regard to the effect knowledge of this incident would have on his activity as president of the local Little League, with which he had been associated approximately seven years.
Recommendation Wherefore, the Hearing Officer recommends that Richmond's registration as a broker-salesman be revoked with the observation that Richmond, although he did conceal information, did so for understandable reasons, and that some consideration should be given to allowing Richmond to be reinstated after a period of six months. Further, the Hearing Officer recommends that no action be taken regarding Richmond's salesman's license, the Florida Real Estate Commission having failed to allege any statutory basis for revocation or suspension thereof.

Findings Of Fact Pursuant to notice, the Division of Administrative Hearings, by its duly designated Hearing Officer, G. Steven Pfeiffer, held a public hearing in this case on January 11, 1978, in Cocoa, Florida. The following appearances were entered: Charles E. Felix, Orlando, Florida, for the Plaintiff, Florida Real Estate Commission; and Kenneth A. Studstill, Titusville, Florida, for the Defendants, Thomas L. Pittman and Pittman Real Estate, Inc. The Florida Real Estate Commission issued an Administrative Complaint against the Defendants on August 23, 1977. On September 12, 1977, the Defendants filed an election of rights form which constituted a petition for hearing. In accordance with the provisions of Section 120.57(1)(b)(3), the Commission requested that a hearing officer from the Division of Administrative Hearings be assigned to conduct the hearing. The final hearing was scheduled by notices dated October 19, 1977 and November 2, 1977. At the final hearing the Commission called Gary W. Brandt, a registered real estate salesman, as its only witness. The Defendants called Virginia Laver, a former employee of Defendant Pittman Real Estate, Inc., and the Defendant Thomas L. Pittman. Hearing Officer's Exhibits 1-3, and Petitioner's Exhibits 1 and 2 were offered into evidence and were received. There were conflicts in the testimony of certain of the witnesses. In resolving these conflicts due regard has been given to the credibility of the witnesses as evidenced in part by the demeanor of the witnesses at the hearing, and in part by the extent to which the witnesses' testimony has been corroborated by other evidence.
Findings Of Fact By application filed with respondent, Division of Real Estate (Division), on July 5, 1988, petitioner, Garth Arin Malloy, sought licensure as a real estate salesman. In response to question six an the application, petitioner acknowledged that he had been arrested in August 1984 for possession of marijuana, a felony, and burglary and sexual misconduct, both misdemeanors, and ultimately pled guilty to the felony charge of possession of marijuana and the misdemeanor charge of sexual misconduct. After reviewing the application, and securing petitioner's record of arrests, respondent issued proposed agency action in the form of a letter on October 3, 1988, denying the request on the ground petitioner was not "honest, truthful, trustworthy, and of good character" and did not "have a good reputation for fair dealing." The denial prompted petitioner to request a formal hearing. Malloy, who is twenty-eight years old, graduated from Spring Hill College in Mobile, Alabama in February 1983 with a degree in psychology. After graduation, he worked as a recreation director for a residential care facility for emotionally disturbed children in the Mobile area. In August 1984 he was arrested for possession of marijuana after police found marijuana plants growing in his backyard. The charge was a felony under Alabama law. A short time later, one of Malloy's neighbors lodged charges of sexual abuse against him for allegedly making improper advances on her thirteen year old son. A charge of second degree burglary, a felony, was added for Malloy allegedly unlawfully entering the house where the minor resided Upon advice of his attorney, Malloy accepted a negotiated plea offered by the state and pled guilty to the felony charge of possession of marijuana and to a reduced misdemeanor charge of sexual misconduct, and the state agreed to dismiss the burglary charge. After the plea was accepted, Malloy was placed on probation for five years. Except for these offenses, petitioner has never been charged with or convicted of any other crimes. Malloy accepted the above arrangement since he did not wish to go to trial and risk incarceration. He readily acknowledged the presence of marijuana plants in his back yard which he said were for his own consumption and that of some friends. However, he vigorously denied the sexual misconduct and related burglary charges and blamed them on the neighbor who he contended was mentally unstable and vindictive. Since Malloy's plea, he has been on supervised probation which is scheduled to end on January 1, 1990. Under the terms of his probation, Malloy must check in once a month, report his activities to a supervisor and attend counseling sessions. He is currently in the process of requesting an early termination of probation. Malloy left Alabama in early 1985 and worked briefly at a resort in Key West. In late 1985 he began employment with a satellite communications firm in St. Petersburg and was in charge of sales, credit and installations for three area stores. In that capacity, he handled the firm's money and was required to frequently deal with the public. After a brief stint as an assistant store manager with a Sarasota department store, Malloy worked two years as a teller for a Sarasota savings and loan institution where he handled large amounts of cash on a daily basis. It is noteworthy that the bank hired petitioner with the knowledge of his criminal background. Pending the outcome of this proceeding, Malloy is working as an office manager with a Sarasota air-conditioning firm. Malloy now wishes to enter the real estate profession and eventually specialize in appraising. Malloy's honesty, trustworthiness and good reputation were attested to by the branch manager of the bank where Malloy was employed and the owner of the business where he now works. Malloy was described as being honest, reliable and trustworthy. Both had the utmost confidence in entrusting Malloy with handling moneys. Indeed, all positions held by Malloy since 1985 have involved unsupervised responsibilities, the handling of cash and dealings with the public. As such, he has established rehabilitation. There was no evidence to contradict these findings.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law, it is RECOMMENDED that the application of Garth Arin Malloy for licensure as a real estate salesman be GRANTED.

Findings Of Fact Wallace Adams was a registered real estate salesman with Continental Marketing Services from November, 1975, until May, 1976. The depositions of Robert Cline, Donald Brawdy and Jean Sue Brawdy were received into the record without objection. The depositions of the Brawdys reflect that they received a telephone call from an individual identifying himself as Wallace or Wally Adams. The deposition of Robert Cline reflects that he received a call from an individual whom Cline identified only as Mr. Adams. The deponents indicated that the caller stated he represented Continental Marketing Services, a real estate sales organization. The caller represented that Continental Marketing Services desired to list property which they owned in Florida and Arizona for sale. The caller represented that their property would be advertised nationally and internationally, and that foreign buyers were interested in purchasing such property. Cline indicated that he was called in approximately November of 1975, and the Brawdys indicated that they were first contacted in February of 1976. The caller suggested the potential sales prices of the property to be listed, and the deponents eventually entered into a listing contract with Continental Marketing Services, paying advance listing fees ranging from $350 to $1,125. None of the deponents indicated that they ever met the Respondent, Wallace E. Adams.
Recommendation Based upon the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, the Hearing Officer recommends that the Florida Real Estate Commission take no action against the registration of Wallace E. Adams as a registered real estate salesman. DONE and ORDERED this 16th day of March, 1979, in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida. STEPHEN F.

The Issue The issue posed for decision herein is whether or not the Respondent's license to practice real estate should be revoked based on conduct set forth hereinafter.
Findings Of Fact Based upon the testimony adduced at the hearing and the witnesses' demeanor while testifying, the documentary evidence received and the entire record compiled herein, the following relevant facts are found. Based on its Administrative Complaint filed herein dated July 28, 1981, the Florida Real Estate Commission (Petitioner) seeks to revoke Respondent's license to practice real estate based on his having been found guilty of a crime involving moral turpitude and fraudulent or dishonest dealing, in violation of Subsection 475.25(1)(f), Florida Statutes (1979), and his (Respondent) having been confined to a state or federal prison, in violation of Subsection 475.25(1)(m), Florida Statutes (1979). The Respondent, Joel L. Steiner, is a registered real estate salesman and has been issued License No. 0150824 by the Petitioner. The Administrative Complaint filed herein alleges that during the period June 1, 1976, and continuing through March 23, 1977, Respondent, for the purpose of executing a scheme and artifice to defraud the public, caused mails and other matters to be sent from the New York office of Crown Colony in New York, New York 1/ , to be placed in post offices and authorized depositories for mail matter to be delivered by mail by the United States Postal Service. As a result of those actions, Respondent was indicted by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and charged with a violation of Title XVIII, United States Code, Sections 1341 and 1342, to wit, the use of the mails in a scheme to defraud. Following a trial, Respondent, on January 28, 1981, was found guilty as charged of the offense of the use of the mails in a scheme to defraud and was committed for imprisonment for a period of eighteen (18) months and ordered to pay a fine to the United States in the amount of $12,000.00. (Petitioner's Exhibits 2 and 3 and testimony of Postal Inspector John Muhelberg.) Respondent appeared through counsel; however, no evidence was offered by Respondent in defense of the charges after Petitioner's case in chief.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is hereby RECOMMENDED: That the Respondent's License No. 0150824 to practice real estate as a salesman be REVOKED. RECOMMENDED this 18th day of August, 1982, in Tallahassee, Florida. JAMES E.
