305NOTICE OF FLORIDA LAW
309408.804 License required; display.--
313(I) It is unlawful to provide services that require licensure, or operate or maintain a provider that offers
331or provides services that require licensure, without first obtaining from the agency a license authorizing
346the provision of such services or the operation or maintenance of such provider.
359(2) A license must be displayed in a conspicuous place readily visible to clients who enter at the address
378that appears on the license and is valid only in the hands of the licensee to whom it is issued and may not
401be sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred, voluntarily or involuntarily. The license is valid only for the
417licensee, provider, and location for which the license is issued.
427408.812 Unlicensed activity.--
430(1) A person or entity may not offer or advertise services that require licensure as defined by this part,
449authorizing statutes, or applicable rules to the public without obtaining a valid license from the agency.
465A licenseholder may not advertise or hold out to the public that he or she holds a license for other than
486that for which he or she actually holds the license.
496(2) The operation or maintenance of an unlicensed provider or the performance of any services that
512require licensure without proper licensure is a violation of this part and authorizing statutes. Unlicensed
527activity constitutes harm that materially affects the health, safety, and welfare of clients. The agency or
543any state attorney may, in addition to other remedies provided in this part, bring an action for an
561injunction to restrain such violation, or to enjoin the future operation or maintenance of the unlicensed
577provider or the performance of any services in violation of this part and authorizing statutes, until
593compliance with this part, authorizing statutes, and agency rules has been demonstrated to the
607satisfaction ofthe agency.
610(3) It is unlawful for any person or entity to own, operate, or maintain an unlicensed provider. If after
629receiving notification from the agency, such person or entity fails to cease operation and apply for a
646license under this part and authorizing statutes, the person or entity shall be subject to penalties as
663prescribed by authorizing statutes and applicable rules. Each day of continued operation is a separate
678offense.
679( 4) Any person or entity that fails to cease operation after agency notification may be fined $1 ,000 for
699each day of noncompliance.
703(5) When a controlling interest or licensee has an interest in more than one provider and fails to license
722a provider rendering services that require licensure, the agency may revoke all licenses and impose
737actions under s. 408.814 and a fine of $1 ,000 per day, unless otherwise specified by authorizing statutes,
755against each licensee until such time as the appropriate license is obtained for the unlicensed operation.
771(6) In addition to granting injunctive relief pursuant to subsection (2), if the agency determines that a
788person or entity is operating or maintaining a provider without obtaining a license and determines that a
805condition exists that poses a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of a client of the provider, the person
825or entity is subject to the same actions and fines imposed against a licensee as specified in this part,
844authorizing statutes, and agency rules.
849(7) Any person aware of the operation of an unlicensed provider must report that provider to the
866agency.
