§ 7103 Contractor License Discipline Reciprocity

The revocation, suspension, or other disciplinary action of a license to act as a contractor by another state shall constitute grounds for disciplinary action in this state if the individual is a licensee, or applies for a license, in this state. A certified copy of the revocation, suspension, or other disciplinary action by the other state is conclusive evidence of that action. (Added by Stats. 1994, Ch. 1135, Sec. 3.
