Findings Of Fact The record presented consists of a transcript of the proceedings before the Palm Beach County Construction Industry Licensing Board considering allegations against Ronald Pintacuda and a portion of the exhibits presented to that Board during the proceedings. The record does not contain the Administrative Complaint or other charging documents upon which the Palm Beach County Construction Industry Licensing Board proceeded against Ronald Pintacuda. The allegations against Pintacuda are summed up in a statement by Mr. Flynn, prosecuting attorney for the Board on page 6 of the transcript. The prime contention of the prosecution and the proceeding before the local board was that Pintacuda was guilty of aiding and abetting an unlicensed company to avoid the provisions of the building code by virtue of a specific agreement referred to throughout the transcript but which was not made a part of the evidentiary record presented to the Hearing Officer. Mr. Ciklin, counsel for Mr. Pintacuda, refers on page 5 to three charges outstanding against Pintacuda before the local board, and in his summation at page 38 outlines these as follows: Willful and deliberate disregard of the applicable building codes or law; Combining or conspiring with an uncertified or unregistered person (by allowing one's certificate or registration to be used by any uncertified or unregistered person with the intent to evade the provisions of this part); and Acting in the capacity of a contractor under someone else's certificate except for the name of the certificate holder. In the absence of a charging document or a statement of charges having been read into the record, Mr. Ciklin's outline of the charges considered by the local board against Ronald Pintacuda are taken as true and accurate. The critical element in consideration of this case is the time sequence of the events. The sequence of events between Ronald Pintacuda and Ralph Howell began in 1974, when Howell approached Pintacuda about forming a construction business. C Pinta & Howell, Inc., was created in a corporate reorganization from an inactive corporation, Martin & Pinta, Inc., in January, 1975. Martin & Pinta, Inc., was a corporation formed by John Martin and Ronald Pintacuda in which John Martin was president and Ronald Pintacuda vice-president. John Martin, a Canadian, ceased participation in the business upon his return to Canada, and the corporation went into an inactive status. In January, 1975, Ralph Howell approached Ronald Pintacuda about forming a construction corporation. This resulted in the formation of Pinta & Howell, Inc. Because of domestic problems, Ralph Howell's father, Alexander Howell, served as president of Pinta and Howell, Inc. Ralph Howell was construction superintendent of this corporation and was the primary manager of the Howell interests in the corporation. Pintacuda participated actively in the business affairs of Pinta & Howell, Inc., from January, 1975, until December, 1975. Although it is not explicitly stated in the transcript, it is apparent that Pintacuda decided to cease his active role in Pinta & Howell, Inc., in December, 1975. At that time Pintacuda entered an agreement with Alexander Howell which was the basis of an allegation of combining or conspiring with an uncertified or unregistered person by allowing one's certificate or registration to be used by any uncertified or unregistered person with intent to evade the provisions of the law. Although this agreement is not a part of the exhibits presented to the Hearing Officer, a portion of that agreement was read into the record by Mr. Pintacuda at page 29 of the transcript. That portion of the agreement provided as follows: Agreement between Ronald Pintacuda and Alexander Howell--That Ronald Pintacuda and Alexander Howell, officers of Howell & Pinta, Inc. stipulate that Howell & Pinta, Inc. shall not conduct any business unless both parties agree in writing to such business. This includes, but is not limited to, the signing of any contracts or financial obligations. The basis of the complaints upon which the prosecution of Pintacuda was based, arose in early 1970, when Ralph and Gerald Howell accepted contracts in behalf of Tri-County Marine Construction, Inc., and pulled permits from local authorities in the name of Pinta & Howell, Inc. In addition, Ronald Pintacuda is charged with obtaining four building permits in the name of Pinta & Howell, Inc., for construction contracts taken by Tri-County Marine Construction, Inc. (Tri-County Marine). After the formation of Pinta & Howell, Inc., Ralph Howell who was an officer in Tri-County Marine suggested to Pintacuda that Tri-County Marine be made, an affiliate or subsidiary of Pinta & Howell, Inc. Pintacuda concurred in this, and Howell had the advertising, letterhead, contracts, and yellow page advertisement for Tri-County Marine altered to reflect that Tri-County Marine was an affiliate or subsidiary of Pinta & Howell, Inc. Documentary evidence concerning the corporate status of Pinta & Howell, Inc., and Tri-County Marine which was presented to the local board was not made a part of the exhibits presented to the Hearing Officer. However, testimony of witnesses at the proceeding based upon those exhibits indicate that there was no record in the Secretary of State's office of any corporate interrelationship between Pinta & Howell, Inc., and Tri-County Marine, Inc. The testimony of Pintacuda and the contracts presented in support of the Board's case do show that Tri-County Marine represented itself to the public and functioned as an affiliate or subsidiary of Pinta & Howell, Inc. This affiliation was even recognized by the Board's prosecuting attorney, Mr. Flynn, at page 6 when he stated ". . . Tri- County Marine Construction, Inc. is an affiliate of Pinta & Howell, Inc." Initially, efforts in January, 1976, to contact Pintacuda by local Board authorities and investigators of the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board were unsuccessful. From the testimony of Mr. Verner, investigator for the Construction Industry Licensing Board, many telephone and personal messages left with Mr. Ralph Howell and his secretary were not passed on to Mr. Pintacuda. When Mr. Pintacuda was eventually contacted by Mr. Verner, Mr. Pintacuda was cooperative, forthright, and took immediate steps to deregister as qualifier for Pinta & Howell, Inc., in an effort to prevent further abuses by Ralph and Gerald Howell. The Palm Beach County Construction Industry Licensing Board did not find Ronald Pintacuda guilty of any of the three allegations charged. The action to revoke the license of Ronald Pintacuda was on a motion by Mr. Barrett at page 41 of the transcript which does not recite a finding regarding Pintacuda's guilt of any of the allegations against him. It was this motion which was seconded and passed by the Board. The local board therefore revoked the license of Ronald Pintacuda without a finding of guilt on any of the complaints against him.
Recommendation Based upon the foregoing findings of fact and conclusions of law and review of the proceedings before the Palm Beach County Construction Industry Licensing Board, the Hearing Officer recommends that no action be taken by the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board against the license of Ronald Pintacuda.

Findings Of Fact Harry L. Wilson is the holder of a registered roofing contractor's license from the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board. The license, Number RC 0041328, was first issued in March of 1982. The license was issued in the name of Harry L. Wilson Roofing, 1943 Hardy Street, Jacksonville, Florida, with the Respondent as qualifier. The Respondent has been the qualifier of Harry L. Wilson Roofing at all times relevant to this proceeding. On December 6, 1984, the Respondent and Robbie L. Hicks, entered into a written contract (Petitioner'S Exhibit 2). Pursuant to this written contract (hereinafter referred to as the "Contract"), the Respondent agreed to perform the repair work specified in the Contract in a "professional manner" and Ms. Hicks agreed to pay the Respondent $2,395.00. The property to be repaired is rental property owned by Ms. Hicks. The property is located at 1508 Eaverson Street, Jacksonville, Florida. The Respondent commenced work sometime during the early part of 1983. Shortly after commencing work, however, the Respondent and Ms. Hicks began having disagreements as to the work to be performed and the quality of the Respondent's work. These disagreements continued after the Respondent completed the work in November of 1983. Ms. Hicks testified that the work that the Respondent completed was done in an unprofessional manner and that the Respondent had not completed all of the work that he had agreed to perform. In particular, Ms. Hicks testified that the Respondent had failed to paint the interior of the house beige as required by the Contract, had failed to remove saw dust and other debris from the house following completion of the work, had failed to finish cabinets installed in the house, had failed to repair screens and generally had not performed in the manner he had agreed to perform. Ms. Hicks paid the Respondent all but $410.00 of the contract price. The Respondent testified that all off the work called for pursuant to the Contract had been performed. According to the Respondent, he had performed some work not required by the Contract and had not performed other work requested by Ms. Hicks because the work was beyond the scope of the Contract. The Respondent also stated that the work which Ms. Hicks expected would have cost considerably more than the price agreed upon in the Contract. The Respondent did not perform all of the work specified in the Contract in a "professional manner" as required by the Contract. Based upon the testimony of Mr. Claude Bagwell, Deputy Chief, Building and Zoning, Inspection Division of the City of Jacksonville, it is clear that no permit was issued by the City of Jacksonville to perform the work required by the Contract. The only permits issued with regard to Ms. Hicks' rental property was a permit issued in 1961 and the original building permit issued in 1949. Additionally, due to the fact that no Florida registered roofing contractor's license in the name of "Harry L. Wilson Roofing" had been filed with the City of Jacksonville, no permit could be issued to Harry L. Wilson Roofing with regard to the Contract. The Respondent admitted that he had not obtained a permit to perform the work required by the Contract. The Respondent indicated that he had not obtained a permit because he was not aware that one was required in order to perform the work. He did indicate that he had obtained permits to perform other jobs. The Respondent could not, however, have obtained permits for other jobs because no license issued in the name of Harry L. Wilson Roofing had been filed with the City of Jacksonville. The Respondent did take the examination required in order to obtain a registered roofing contractor's license. The Petitioner suggested in its Proposed Findings that the "permit requirement was explained" when the Respondent took the exam. No evidence to support such a finding was presented at the hearing. The Respondent in entering into the Contract clearly used the name "Wilson Recycling". Nowhere on the Contract is the name "Harry L. Wilson Roofing" used. The Respondent ultimately admitted that no Florida license authorizing the use of the name "Wilson Recycling" had been obtained by him. The Respondent, however, when initially asked whether a Florida license in the name of "Wilson Recycling" had been obtained indicated that such a license had been issued. On further examination, however, the Respondent testified that an occupational license in the name of "Wilson Recycling' had been obtained by him and not a Florida license. The work to be performed pursuant to the Contract was beyond the scope off the Respondent's license. As pointed out by Mr. Bagwell the work to be performed pursuant to the Contract would require licensure as a registered residential contractor or more.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED: That count I of the Administrative Complaint filed against the Respondent be dismissed. It is further RECOMMENDED: That Respondent be found guilty of violating Section 489.129 (1)(g), Florida Statutes (1983), by contracting in a name other than the name as set forth on the Respondent's license. It is further RECOMMENDED: That Respondent be found guilty of violating Section 489.129(1)(j), Florida Statutes (1983), by failing in a material respect to comply with the provisions of Section 489.119(2) and(3), Florida Statutes (1983), in that the Respondent failed to qualify the business name "Wilson Recycling" with the Construction Industry Licensing Board. It is further RECOMMENDED: That Respondent be found guilty of violating Section 489.129(1)(j), Florida Statutes (1983), when he failed in a material respect to comply with the provisions of Section 489.117(2), Florida Statutes (1983), by contracting to perform and actually performing work beyond the scope of his Florida contracting license. It is further RECOMMENDED: That Petitioner suspend Respondent's roofing contractor's license for a period of three (3) months.

SARTIN Hearing Officer Division of Administrative Hearings The Oakland Building 2009 Apalachee Parkway Tallahassee, Florida 32301 (904) 488-9675 Filed with the Clerk of the Division of Administrative Hearings this 17th day of December, 1984.

Wilson 1943 Hardee Street Jacksonville, Florida 32209 Mr. Fred Roche, Secretary Department of Professional Regulation 130 North Monroe Street Tallahassee, Florida 32301
The Issue The issues presented in this case concern certain allegations made by the Petitioner against the Respondent through an Administrative Complaint. In particular, it is alleged that on or about April 23, 1980, the Respondent's contractor's license issued by the Petitioner was suspended and subsequent to that time, the Respondent continued to perform contracting services through a company, David H. Hamilton, Inc., a corporation which was not properly qualified by the Petitioner to provide contracting services. It is further alleged by the Petitioner that the Respondent obtained building permits Nos. S2740-80B 1/ and 3214-80B from the Osceola County Building Department with the use of another contractor's license, namely: Louie S. Winchester, license #RR003839. For the reason of these facts, the Petitioner alleges that the Respondent has violated Subsection 489.127(1)(e), Florida Statutes, in that he attempted to use a suspended registration. It is further alleged, based upon the facts as reported in this Issues statement, that the Respondent has violated Subsection 489.129(1)(g), Florida Statutes, by acting in a capacity as a contractor under a certificate of registration not in his name. Finally, it is alleged, based upon the facts as reported hereinabove, that the Respondent has violated Subsection 489.129(1)(j), Florida Statutes, by failing to comply with Subsection 489.119(2), Florida Statutes, by not properly qualifying a corporation under which he performed contracting services.
Findings Of Fact The case presented concerns license disciplinary action by the Petitioner, State of Florida, Department of Professional Regulation, Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board, against the Respondent, David H. Hamilton, who holds a residential contractor's license issued by the Petitioner, #RR0014037. The prosecution of this action is through the offices of the Department of Professional Regulation and the outcome of the matter could lead to the revocation, suspension or other disciplinary action against the Respondent, in keeping with the provisions of Chapter 489, Florida Statutes. This case was presented before the Division of Administrative Hearings following a decision on the part of the Respondent to request a formal hearing pursuant to Subsection 120.57(1), Florida Statutes. The facts reveal that a Final Order of the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board was issued on April 23, 1980, and this order established disciplinary action against the current license of David H. Hamilton. (A copy of this Final Order may be found as a part of the record in this proceeding and official recognition of that Final Order is made by the Recommended Order process.) This Final Order was entered after review of a Recommended Order of a Division of Administrative Hearings' Hearing Officer. By the terms of the Final Order, Hamilton's license was suspended "until such time as his Lake County Certificate of Competency is reinstated by the Lake County Board of Examiners." This contingency referred to the fact that the Respondent had his Lake County Certificate of Competency Card removed prior to the entry of the April 23, 1980, order of the Construction Industry Licensing Board. On September 2, 1980, at a time when the Respondent's residential contractor's license was under suspension by the State of Florida, the Respondent through a corporation applied to the Osceola County Building Department for a building permit to construct a residence in Osceola County, Florida. This permit number was #2740-80B. The permit was issued on September 4, 1980, and was granted in the name of David Hamilton, Inc., a corporation in which the Respondent was a principal. To obtain the permit in the sense of an effort to meet the requirements that the permit be applied for by a licensed Florida contractor, the Respondent used the registered residential contractor's license of one Louie Stevens Winchester who held license #RR003839 issued by the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board. On the occasion of the issuance of the permit by Osceola County, Winchester was an officer of David Hamilton, Inc. Through the action of "pulling" this permit and the utilization of the permit in his construction of the residence, the Respondent was acting in the capacity of contractor under Winchester's license and the offices of the corporation, as opposed to the Respondent's suspended license. Prior to the request for permit, neither Hamilton nor Winchester had attempted to properly qualify David Hamilton, Inc., as a contracting corporation with the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board. In this case, to properly qualify the corporation, it would have entailed the use of Winchester as the qualifying agent, in view of the fact that Winchester still held a valid contractor's license from the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board. No effort was made to qualify David Hamilton, Inc., in its own right, through the agency of Winchester, until some time shortly beyond December 1, 1980. On October 28, 1980, the Respondent in his individual capacity, that is to say unconnected with his business pursuits as David Hamilton, Inc., went to the Osceola Building Department and applied for the issuance of a building permit for a home remodeling project for a customer of his. The permit in question on this occasion was #3214-80B. That permit was issued on October 29, 1930, and was used by the Respondent in his building project. An official in the Osceola County Building Department had checked with an employee in the Lake County Building Department on the status of Hamilton's rights to be employed as a building contractor in Lake County, Florida, and was informed that Hamilton's status in Lake County was acceptable. Based upon these representations, the Osceola County employee issued the permit discussed in this paragraph to Hamilton. The Osceola County employee also asked that the Lake County employee formally confirm Hamilton's status. The correspondence in response to Osceola County employee, John Pate, Assistant Building Director, as issued by an official in Lake County, one Herb Dudgeon, may be found as Petitioner's Exhibit No. 3. This letter was received by Pate after the permit was issued. That correspondence indicates that Hamilton had been given the privilege of reinstating his Lake County Competence Card, contingent upon "providing bond, insurances, occupational license, etc.," which had not been received by Lake County as of the date of the correspondence. The correspondence goes on to mention that the State, meaning the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board, was waiting for confirmation of the completion of the contingencies referred to. Subsequent to this correspondence, the Respondent having completed all the necessary steps for reinstatement of the Lake County Competency Card, had his license suspension removed and was reinstated by the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board, as verified by that body.
Recommendation Based upon a full consideration of the findings of fact and conclusions of law reached herein, it is RECOMMENDED: That the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board issue a Final Order which absolves the Respondent of any responsibility for a violation of Subsection 489.127(1)(e), Florida Statutes (1980); that finds the Respondent in violation of Subsection 489.129(1)(g), Florida Statutes (1979), and imposes a penalty of a 60-day suspension; and that finds the Respondent in violation of Subsection 489.129(1)(j), Florida Statutes (1979), and imposes a suspension of 60 days to run concurrently with the other suspension in this paragraph of recommendation. 2/ DONE and ENTERED this 13th day of November, 1981, in Tallahassee, Florida. CHARLES C. ADAMS, Hearing Officer Division of Administrative Hearings The Oakland Building 2009 Apalachee Parkway Tallahassee, Florida 32301 (904) 488-9675 Filed with the Clerk of the Division of Administrative Hearings this 13th day of November, 1981.
The Issue The issues are whether Respondent violated Sections 489.129(1)(i) and 489.129(1)(o), Florida Statutes, and if so, what discipline should be imposed.
Findings Of Fact At all times material to this proceeding, Respondent was licensed as a Certified Plumbing Contractor, holding License No. CF C056847. Respondent has maintained an active license since October 19, 1995. At all times material to this proceeding, Respondent conducted his business under the name of Ron Price Plumbing and Tile. On May 18, 2000, Respondent's business was located at 2043 Mike Street, South Daytona, Florida. On May 18, 2000, Respondent gave Edward Carlson a written proposal to perform some repair work in a bathroom at Mr. Carlson's residence, which was located in Daytona Beach, Volusia County, Florida. The letterhead on the written proposal indicates that Respondent's business address was 2043 Mike Street, Daytona Beach, Florida. The written proposal states that for the sum of $1,200, Respondent would perform the following work : (a) remove floor and bottom two rows of tile; (b) install PVC pan and drain; (c) install dura rock to walls; (d) install four-by-four wall tile; (e) install second floor; (f) install two-by-two floor tile; (g) use white grout; and (h) haul away refuse. Mr. Carlson accepted this proposal. Respondent did not pull a permit from the City of Daytona Beach Building Department before commencing the work in Mr. Carlson's bathroom. The City of Daytona Beach, Florida, requires a permit for the type of work performed by Respondent, even though very few plumbers or contractors actually take the time to pull one. Specifically, City of Daytona Beach Ordinance 104.1.4.1 requires a permit for minor repairs exceeding $500. Respondent, subsequently, completed the work in Mr. Carlson's bathroom. Mr. Carlson inspected the work and paid Respondent $1,200 as agreed. There is no credible evidence that Respondent's work was substandard or that he damaged Mr. Carlson's property in any respect. Thereafter, Respondent moved his business to 6089 Airport Road, Port Orange, Volusia County, Florida. As of September 1, 2000, Petitioner's records correctly reflect Respondent's current address of record at the new business location. Petitioner expended $312.48 in total cost, excluding attorney's fees, for investigating, filing, and pursuing the complaint against Respondent through the administrative complaint process.
Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED: That Petitioner enter a final order finding Respondent guilty of violating Section 489.129(1)(o), Florida Statutes, imposing an administrative fine in the amount of $500, and assessing investigative costs in the amount of $312.48.

Findings Of Fact The Respondent, Marlene E. Lutman, is a vice president of American Custom Builders, Inc. and was a vice president in 1977. Respondent holds licenses Number CR C012570 end Number CR CA12570 issued by the Petitioner Board. On September 11, 1978, Respondent submitted a certification change of status application to the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board. This application, completed by Respondent under oath on September 7, 1978, was filed for the purpose of changing the contractor's licenses held by Respondent to add the name of American Custom Builders, Inc. to said licenses. On July 6, 1979, an Administrative Complaint was filed against Respondent, doing business as American Custom Builders, Inc., seeking to permanently revoke her licenses and her right to practice under said licenses and to impose an administrative fine in the amount of $500.00. Respondent Lutman requested an administrative hearing, which was scheduled for September 6, 1979, continued on Motion of Respondent, and held November 29, 1979. On the application completed by Respondent, Question 12(b) asked: Are there now any unpaid past-due bills or claims for labor, materials, or services, as a result of the construction operations of any person named in (i) below or any organization in which such person was a member of the personnel? Question 12(c) of the application asked: Are there now any liens, suits, or judgments of record or pending as a result of the construction operations of any person named in "(i) below" or any organization in which any such person was a member of the personnel? Respondent, as a vice president of American Custom Builders, Inc., was designated in "(i) below." She answered "no" on the application to both of the above stated questions. Respondent completed the application while she was in Florida. Prior to completing the application, Respondent spoke by telephone with John D. Cannell, an attorney in Ohio, in reference to Questions 12(b) and 12(c), supra. Cannell told Respondent that there were no unpaid bills outstanding. He said that there had been liens filed involving American Custom Builders, Inc., but that these liens had been cancelled. Cannell based his statements to Respondent upon oral assurances from personnel at the bank involved in financing the construction project associated with the liens that all liens had been paid. It was later learned that on September 7, 1978, the date Cannell told Respondent the liens had been cancelled, the liens had not been cancelled and were of record in the Recorder's Office of Geauga County, Ohio. Liens had been filed on January 6, 1978, January 23, 1978, and January 3l, 1978, by various subcontractors involved in the construction of a house owned by Winford and Sally Ferrentina. The liens were based on claims against American Custom Builders, Inc. as general contractor and the Ferrentinas as owners for unpaid labor and materials and were not satisfied of record until September 20, 1978, on which date the January 6, 1978 lien was satisfied, and March 22, 1979, on which date the other two (2) liens were satisfied. The Hearing Officer finds that Respondent Lutman did not intend to make a material false statement but negligently relied on oral representations that there were no past-due bills and no liens of record pending as a result of her construction operations. Both parties submitted proposed findings of fact, memoranda of law and proposed recommended orders, and the Petitioner Board submitted a reply memorandum. These instruments were considered in the writing of this order. To the extent the proposed findings of fact have not been adopted in, or are inconsistent with, factual findings in this order they have been specifically rejected as being irrelevant or not having been supported by the evidence.
Recommendation Based upon the foregoing Findings and Conclusions of Law, the Hearing Officer recommends that the Respondent, Marlene Lutman, be reprimanded.
