114STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
118The issue for determination is whether Respondent committed
126the offenses set forth in the Administrative Complaint and, if
136so, what action should be taken.
142PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
144On November 26, 1996, the Department of Business and
153Professional Regulation, Construction Industry Licensing Board,
159hereinafter Petitioner, filed an Administrative Complaint against
166Argadys T. Iglesias, hereinafter Respondent. Petitioner charged
173Respondent with violating Subsection 489.129(1)(r), Florida
179Statutes (1993), by failing to satisfy, within a reasonable time,
189the terms of a civil judgment obtained against the licensee, or
200the business organization qualified by the licensee, relating to
209the practice of the licensee's profession. By an Election of
219Rights form, Respondent disputed the allegations of fact and
228requested a formal hearing. On March 17, 1997, this matter was
239referred to the Division of Administrative Hearings.
246This case was consolidated with Case No. 97-1369. However,
255prior to hearing, the two cases were severed.
263At hearing, Petitioner presented the testimony of two
271witnesses and entered eight exhibits into evidence. Respondent
279testified in his own behalf and entered no exhibits into
289evidence. 1
291However, Respondent was permitted to late-file on or before
300July 16, 1997, a copy of the Town of Surfside's building permit
312records, as an exhibit. Respondent filed the records on July 23,
3231997. Petitioner did not file an objection to the records being
334filed beyond July 16, 1997. The building permit records of the
345Town of Surfside are hereby accepted into evidence as
354Respondent's Composite Exhibit No. 1. 2
360No transcript of the hearing was ordered. At the request of
371the parties, the time for filing post-hearing submissions was set
381for more than ten days following the hearing. The parties filed
392post-hearing submissions which have been considered in this
400recommended order.
402FINDINGS OF FACT
4051. At all times material hereto, Argadys T. Iglesias,
414hereinafter Respondent, was licensed as a certified general
422contractor by the Department of Business and Professional
430Regulation, Construction Industry Licensing Board, hereinafter
436Petitioner. In February 1991, Petitioner issued Respondent
443license number CG C052822 and placed the license on an inactive
454status.
4552. Effective February 23, 1993, Respondent's license status
463was changed to active; and Petitioner became the qualifying agent
473for Miami Construction Enterprises, Inc., hereinafter Miami
480Construction. Since in or around August 1994, Respondent's
488license has been on a delinquent status.
4953. As qualifier, Miami Construction authorized Respondent
502to act for it in matters concerning contracting and to supervise
513construction undertaken by it.
5174. At all times material hereto, Respondent was the primary
527qualifying agent for Miami Construction.
5325. At no time material hereto did Respondent have ownership
542interest in Miami Construction. Juan Carlos Rodriguez was the
551sole owner, having 100 per cent interest in Miami Construction,
561and was its president.
5656. At no time material hereto was Respondent a signatory on
576any bank account maintained by Miami Construction.
5837. At all times material hereto, Respondent was employed
592full-time with Dade County, Florida, as a housing inspector.
6018. On or about May 28, 1993, Miami Construction entered
611into a written contract with Juan Marulanda for repair work on a
623home at a cost of $14,520. The home, located at 8951 Hawthorne
636Avenue, Surfside, Dade County, Florida, was owned by
644Mr. Marulanda and his wife, Mildred Marulanda, and had been
654damaged by Hurricane Andrew.
6589. Juan Carlos Rodriguez entered into the contract on
667behalf of Miami Construction. Mr. Rodriguez represented to
675Mr. Marulanda that Miami Construction was licensed and insured.
68410. On or about July 20, 1993, after demolition of the
695existing damage to the home, building permit no. 24326 was issued
706by the Town of Surfside for the repair work.
71511. On or about August 20, 1993, Mr. Marulanda entered into
726a second written contract with Miami Construction for work on his
737home at a cost of $51,080. This second contract included change
749orders, some of which Respondent was unaware of.
75712. It is inferred and a finding is made that the contract
769dated August 20, 1993, hereinafter the second contract,
777superseded the contract dated May 28, 1993.
78413. No subsequent building permit was issued for the work
794under the second contract. It is inferred and a finding is made
806that building permit no. 24326 also covered work performed in
816accordance with the second contract.
82114. Miami Construction performed the work on
828Mr. Marulanda's home under Respondent's supervision.
83415. At three different times during the construction on his
844home, Mr. Marulanda observed Respondent examining the work being
853performed. During one of Respondent's visits, Mr. Rodriguez
861introduced Mr. Marulanda to Respondent, as the person who was in
872charge of the construction.
87616. The Marulandas paid for part of the construction being
886performed on their home. 3
89117. In addition to performing work on the Marulandas' home,
901Miami Construction performed work on Mr. Marulanda's business
909without the knowledge of Respondent.
91418. At some point during the construction on his home ,
924Mr. Marulanda became dissatisfied with the work being performed.
933On December 2, 1993, Mr. Marulanda informed the Town of Surfside
944that he wanted to cancel building permit no. 24326 based upon
"955Irreconcilible [sic] differences" and that he wanted an owner's
964building permit. On December 2, 1993, the Town of Surfside
974issued Mr. Marulanda an owner's building permit for
"982nonstructural" work.
98419. Respondent did not receive notification of
991Mr. Marulanda's cancellation of the building permit even though
1000Mr. Marulanda notified Miami Construction. When Respondent
1007eventually became aware of the building permit's cancellation, he
1016considered Mr. Marulanda's action as firing him and Miami
1025Construction from the job.
102920. Mr. Marulanda obtained the services of an attorney and
1039in 1994 filed a civil complaint in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit,
1050Dade County, Florida, Case No. 94-3201-CA-01, against Miami
1058Construction and Mr. Rodriguez for alleged violations of the
1067second contract. Respondent was not named as a defendant. The
1077complaint alleged, among other things, breach of agreement,
1085unjust enrichment, fraud, and conversion.
109021. In or around February 1994, after operating for
1099approximately one year, Miami Construction ceased doing business.
110722. On February 25, 1994, a copy of the complaint was
1118served upon Respondent, through service of process, as a director
1128of Miami Construction.
113123. No direct evidence was presented at hearing to show
1141that Respondent was a director of Miami Construction. 4
115024. Respondent did not defend the lawsuit. Respondent
1158believed that, since he was not named in the lawsuit, he could
1170not defend it without the cooperation of Mr. Rodriguez, which he
1181did not have. Additionally, after having communicated with the
1190attorney representing Mr. Marulanda in the court action,
1198Respondent believed erroneously that only Miami Construction and
1206Mr. Rodriguez would be affected by the outcome of the court case.
121825. On October 12, 1994, Mr. Marulanda obtained a default
1228final judgment against Mr. Rodriguez and Miami Construction from
1237the Circuit Court. 5 The default final judgment ordered the
1247following:
12481. That a final judgment be and the same is
1258hereby entered in favor of PLAINTIFF and
1265against the DEFENDANTS, jointly and
1270severally, in the amount of $43,304.06.
12772. That PLAINTIFF additionally recover from
1283said DEFENDANT [sic] costs herein taxed in
1290the sum of $197.00.
12943. That PLAINTIFF recover from said
1300DEFENDANT [sic] attorney's fees herein taxed
1306in the sum of $3,012.50.
1312for all of which let execution issue.
131926. The default final judgment does not show that a copy of
1331it was furnished to Respondent, but does show that a copy was
1343furnished to the named defendants, Mr. Rodriguez and Miami
1352Construction.
135327. The default final judgment has not been set-aside,
1362vacated, appealed, satisfied, or discharged in bankruptcy in
1370whole or in part.
137428. Respondent has not made a single payment toward
1383satisfaction of the default final judgment or offered to
1392negotiate a payment plan. 6
139729. Since in or around August 1994, Respondent's license
1406has been on a delinquent status.
141230. Respondent is no longer a housing inspector with Dade
1422County; however, he remains employed with Dade County.
1430Respondent is required to have his license to continue his
1440employment with Dade County in his present position.
1448CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
145131. Pursuant to Section 120.569, Florida Statutes
1458(Supp. 1996) and Subsection 120.57(1), Florida Statutes
1465(Supp. 1996), the Division of Administrative Hearings has
1473jurisdiction over the subject matter of this proceeding and the
1483parties thereto.
148532. License revocation proceedings are penal in nature.
1493The burden of proof is on the Petitioner to establish the
1504truthfulness of the allegations of the Administrative Complaint
1512by clear and convincing evidence. Department of Banking and
1521Finance, Division of Securities and Investor Protection v.
1529Osborne Stern and Company , 670 So. 2d 932 (Fla. 1996); Ferris v.
1541Turlington , 510 So. 2d 292 (Fla. 1987).
154833. Section 489.129, Florida Statutes (1993), provides in
1556pertinent part:
1558(1) The board may take any of the following
1567actions against any certificateholder [sic]
1572or registrant: place on probation or
1578reprimand the license, revoke,
1582suspend, . . ., require financial restitution
1589to a consumer, impose an administrative fine
1596not to exceed $5,000 per violation, . . ., or
1607assess costs associated with investigation
1612and prosecution, if the contractor, . . ., or
1621business organization for which the
1626contractor is a primary qualifying agent or
1633is a secondary qualifying agent responsible
1639under s. 489.1195 is found guilty of any of
1648the following acts:
1651* * *
1654(r) Failing to satisfy within a reasonable
1661time, the terms of a civil judgment obtained
1669against the licensee, or the business
1675organization qualified by the licensee,
1680relating to the practice of the licensee's
1687profession.
168834. Section 489.1195, Florida Statutes (1993), provides in
1696pertinent part:
1698(1) A qualifying agent is a primary
1705qualifying agent unless he is a secondary
1712qualifying agent under this section.
1717(a) All primary qualifying agents for a
1724business organization are jointly and equally
1730responsible for supervision of all operations
1736of the business organization; for all field
1743work at all sites; and for financial matters,
1751both for the organization in general and for
1759each specific job.
176235. A primary qualifying agent is defined in Section
1771489.105, Florida Statutes (1993), as follows:
1777(4) "Primary qualifying agent" means a
1783person who possesses the requisite skill,
1789knowledge, and experience, and has the
1795responsibility, to supervise, direct, manage,
1800and control the contracting activities of the
1807business organization with which he is
1813connected; who has the responsibility to
1819supervise, direct, manage, and control
1824construction activities on a job for which he
1832has obtained the building permit; and whose
1839technical and personal qualifications have
1844been determined by investigation and
1849examination as provided in this part, as
1856attested by the department.
186036. Rule 61G4-17.001(23), Florida Administrative Code,
1866defines "reasonable time" for the purposes of Subsection
1874489.129(1)(r). Although the said Rule was promulgated subsequent
1882to Respondent's conduct, the Rule is applicable to the instant
1892case. 7 The said Rule defines "reasonable time" as follows:
"1902[N]inety (90) days following the entry of a
1910civil judgment that is not appealed. The
1917Board will consider a mutually agreed upon
1924payment plan as satisfaction of such a
1931judgment so long as the payments are
1938current."
1939At the time of hearing, no payment plan had been agreed upon and
1952not a single payment had been made in an effort to satisfy the
1965default final judgment. Almost two years and nine months had
1975elapsed since the default final judgment had been entered, and it
1986had not been satisfied. The default final judgment has not been
1997satisfied within a reasonable time. Even assuming that the
2006definition was not applicable, failure to satisfy the civil money
2016judgment after almost two years and nine months have elapsed is
2027beyond a reasonable time.
203137. Respondent is prohibited from challenging the
2038correctness or validity of the default final judgment. When a
2048judgment or decree, including a default judgment, has been
2057rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction and the judgment or
2068decree has not been reversed, neither party to that judgment or
2079decree is allowed to challenge its correctness or validity.

2109State, Division of Licensing , 491 So. 2d 1193, 1195 (Fla. 1st DCA
21211986); AGB Oil Company v. Crystal Exploration and Production
2130Company , 406 So. 2d 1165, 1167 (Fla. 3d DCA 1981), rev. denied

2168388, 390 (Fla. 1987). The undersigned is prohibited from going
2178behind the default final judgment; however, mitigating
2185circumstances may be presented to show that discipline should not
2195be imposed. Vernell , supra ; Onett , supra .
220238. The default judgment obtained by the Mr. Marulanda is
2212against Miami Construction and Mr. Rodriguez. Respondent is the
2221primary qualifier of Miami Construction. As the primary
2229qualifier, Respondent, as well as Miami Construction, is
2237statutorily responsible for the financial matters of Miami
2245Construction and for the satisfaction of any civil judgment
2254obtained against Miami Construction. Even though Respondent has
2262created a grave concern as to whether the construction damages
2272ordered in the final default judgment are correct or valid,
2282Respondent may not challenge the correctness or validity of the
2292default judgment against Miami Construction and, in turn, the
2301undersigned is prohibited from going behind the default judgment.
2310However, Respondent may present mitigating circumstances as to
2318disciplinary action against him.
232239. Petitioner has demonstrated that Respondent violated
2329Subsection 489.129(1)(r) by failing to satisfy, within a
2337reasonable time, the terms of a civil judgment obtained against
2347the business organization qualified by the licensee, relating to
2356the practice of the licensee's profession.
236240. Regarding penalty, Rule 61G4-17.001, Florida
2368Administrative Code, provides guidelines for disciplinary action
2375and provides in pertinent part:
2380(18) Failure to satisfy a civil judgment
2387obtained against the licensee or the business
2394organization qualified by the licensee within
2400a reasonable time. First violation, $500 to
2407$1,000 fine and/or proof of satisfaction of
2415civil judgment . . . .
2421* * *
2424(20) For any violation occurring after
2430October 1, 1989, the board may assess the
2438costs of investigation and prosecution. The
2444assessment of such costs may be made in
2452addition to the penalties provided by these
2459guidelines without demonstration of
2463aggravating factors set forth in rule 61G4-
247017.002.
2471(21) For any violation occurring after
2477October 1, 1988, the board may order the
2485contractor to make restitution in the amount
2492of financial loss suffered by the consumer.
2499Such restitution may be ordered in addition
2506to the penalties provided by these guidelines
2513without demonstration of aggravating factors
2518set forth in rule 61G4-17.002, and to the
2526extend [sic] that such order does not
2533contravene federal bankruptcy law.
2537* * *
2540(23) [T]he board will consider a mutually
2547agreed upon payment plan as satisfaction of
2554such a judgment so long as the payments are
2563current.
256441. Rule 61G4-17.001 was not in effect at the time of
2575Respondent's conduct, and the rule, which was in effect at the
2586time of Respondent's conduct, did not contain a reference to
2596Subsection 489.129(1)(r). Petitioner's argument in determining
2602the approach and rationale to use in addressing this circumstance
2612is persuasive. Although there was an absence of a reference to
2623Subsection 489.129(1)(r), the rule in effect did contain language
2632currently found in Rule 61G4-17.001(22), Florida Administrative
2639Code, which authorizes the use of the penalty guideline
2648prescribed for the violation most closely resembling the
2656violation in question. Applying Rule 61G4-17.001(22) to the
2664instant case, the violation most closely resembling a violation
2673of Subsection 489.129(1)(r) is a violation of Subsection
2681489.129(1)(h), Florida Statutes, (mismanagement or misconduct
2687causing financial harm to a customer). The penalty guideline for
2697a violation of Subsection 489.129(1)(h) is found at Rule 61G4-
270717.001(8), Florida Administrative Code, which provides, as a
2715first violation, a fine of $750 to $1,500 and/or probation.
272642. The mitigating and aggravating circumstances to be
2734considered are found at Rule 61G4-17.002, Florida Administrative
2742Code, 8 and are as follows:
2748(1) Monetary or other damage to the
2755licensee's customer, in any way associated
2761with the violation, which damage the licensee
2768has not relieved, as of the time the penalty
2777is to be assessed. (This provision shall not
2785be given effect to the extent it would
2793contravene federal bankruptcy law.)
2797(2) Actual job-site violations of building
2803codes, or conditions exhibiting gross
2808negligence, incompetence, or misconduct by
2813the licensee, which have not been corrected
2820as of the time the penalty is being assessed.
2829(3) The severity of the offense.
2835(4 ) The danger to the public.
2842(5 ) The number of repetitions of offenses.
2850(6) The number of complaints filed against
2857the licensee.
2859(7) The length of time the licensee has
2867practiced.
2868(8) The actual damage, physical or
2874otherwise, to the licensee's customer.
2879(9) The deterrent effect of the penalty
2886imposed.
2887(10) The effect of the penalty upon the
2895licensee's livelihood.
2897(11) Any efforts at rehabilitation.
2902(12) Any other mitigating or aggravating
2908circumstances.
290943. Having considered the totality of the circumstances of
2918the case at hand in light of the guidelines for disciplinary
2929action, it is the view of the undersigned that Petitioner require
2940Respondent to do the following as discipline: (a) pay a $1,000
2952administrative fine; (b) pay restitution or, in the alternative,
2961to provide proof of satisfaction of the final default judgment;
2971and pay costs of investigation and prosecution by Petitioner.
2980RECOMMENDATION

3177ENDNOTES
31781/ At hearing, Respondent made an ore tenus motion for
3188continuance based upon his counsel being unavailable for hearing.
3197Petitioner objected to a continuance. After hearing arguments,
3205the motion was denied.
32092/ The cover letter accompanying Respondent's Composite Exhibit
3217No. 1 is not a part of the Exhibit and is considered to be
3231additional argument by Respondent. Moreover, the Exhibit
3238contains some hand-written notes in pencil on the homeowner's
3247permit issued December 2, 1993. It is evident that these notes
3258are not a part of the document, but have been added. Therefore,
3270the hand-written notes are not considered in this recommended
3279order.
32803/ The record in these proceedings includes cancelled checks
3289from the Marulandas, with some of the checks being made payable
3300to Miami Construction, Inc. and some to Juan Carlos Rodriguez,
3310personally. These cancelled checks were not entered into
3318evidence at hearing by either party, but they are a part of the
3331record, having been filed with the Division of Administrative
3340Hearings at the time of referral of this case.
33494/ Petitioner entered into evidence a computer printout of the
3359corporate record of Miami Construction from the Department of
3368State, Division of Corporations. The printout clearly states
3376that it is not an official record. The printout is hearsay
3387evidence. No direct evidence was presented at hearing for the
3397hearsay evidence to supplement or explain. The printout is not
3407an exception to the hearsay rule of evidence. Therefore,
3416pursuant to Chapter 120, Florida Statutes, the printout is
3425insufficient to establish a finding a fact.
34325/ In Petitioner's Exhibit No. 5, Mr. Marulanda's affidavit of
3442damages submitted to the circuit court contains two items that
3452are not included in the second contract (the superseding
3461contract) between Mr. Marulanda and Miami Construction. Those
3469items are the "Air conditioning" and the "Gate".
34786/ In his proposed recommended order, Respondent states that he
3488made an attempt to correct "any short comings" by Mr. Rodriguez
3499and to "rehabilitate" by spending "over $8,000.00" to "fix"
3509Mr. Marulanda's home after the permit was cancelled by
3518Mr. Marulanda. At hearing, no testimony was presented regarding
3527such efforts by Respondent, and, therefore, these representations
3535by Respondent are not considered in this recommended order.
35447/ Because Rule 61G4-17.001(23), Florida Administrative Code,
3551clarified existing law by defining "reasonable time," the
3559definition may be applied to cases where the alleged violation of
3570Subsection 489.129(1)r, Florida Statutes, occurred prior to the
3578said Rule's effective date. Cf. Agency for Health Care
3587Administration v. Associated Industries of Florida, Inc. , 678 So.
35962d 1239, 1256 (Fla. 1996); Nussbaum v. Mortgage Service America
3606Company , 913 F.Supp. 1548, 1557 (S.D. Fla. 1995).
36148 / At the time of Respondent's conduct, the wording of the rule
3627in effect was the same as Rule 61G4-17.002, Florida
3636Administrative Code, only the numbering was different.
36439/ Rule 61G4-12.018, Florida Administrative Code, requires the
3651Department of Business and Professional Regulation to "submit to
3660the Board an itemized listing of all costs related to
3670investigation and prosecution of an administrative complaint when
3678said complaint is brought before the Board for final agency
3688action." Fundamental fairness requires that the Board provide
3696Respondent an opportunity to dispute and challenge the accuracy
3705and/or reasonableness of the itemization of investigative and
3713prosecutorial costs before the Board determines the amount of
3722costs Respondent will be required to pay.
