The Real Estate Law provides for the licensing and regulation of real estate salespersons and real estate brokers by the Real Estate Commissioner, and authorizes the commissioner to deny, revoke, or suspend a license for specified reasons. Existing law requires persons convicted of certain sex offenses to register as sex offenders, as specified. A violation of various provisions of the Real Estate Law is a crime. This bill would, with regard to an individual who is required to register as a sex offender, require the commissioner to deny an application for licensure, renewal, or reinstatement of, or to revoke, a license under the Real Estate Law, with specified exceptions. The bill would require an individual who is convicted of an offense that requires registration as a sex offender to notify the commissioner within 5 days of the imposition of sentence, with specified exceptions. The bill would allow an individual, under specified circumstances, to petition the superior court to hold a hearing in order for the court to determine whether the individual no longer poses a possible risk to the public, and would provide for the court to order the commissioner to restore the individual's license if it so finds. Because a failure to comply with this requirement would be a crime, the bill would thereby impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
