446NOTICE OF FLORIDA LAW
450408.804 License required; display.--
454( 1) It is unlawful to provide services that require licensure, or operate or maintain a provider that offers
473or provides services that require licensure, without first obtaining from the agency a license authorizing
488the provision of such services or the operation or maintenance of such provider.
501(2) A license must be displayed in a conspicuous place readily visible to clients who enter at the address
520that appears on the license and is valid only in the hands of the licensee to whom it is issued and may not
543be sold, assigned, or otherwise transferred, voluntarily or involuntarily. The license is valid only for the
559licensee, provider, and location for which the license is issued.
569408.812 Unlicensed activity.--
572(1) A person or entity may not offer advertise or services that require licensure as defined by this part,
591authorizing statutes, or applicable rules to the public without obtaining a valid license from the agency.
607A licenseholder may not advertise or hold out to the public that he or she holds a license for other than
628that for which he or she actually holds the license.
638(2) The operation or maintenance of an unlicensed provider or the performance of any services that require
655licensure without proper licensure is a violation of this part and authorizing statutes. Unlicensed activity
670constitutes harm that materially affects the health, safety, and welfare of clients. The agency or any state
687attorney may, in addition to other remedies provided in this part, bring an action for an injunction to
705restrain such violation, or to enjoin the future operation or maintenance of the unlicensed provider or the
722performance of any services in violation of this part and authorizing statutes, until compliance with this
738part, authorizing statutes, and agency rules has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the agency.
753(3) It is unlawful for any person or entity to own, operate, or maintain an unlicensed provider. If after
772receiving notification from the agency, such person or entity fails to cease operation and apply for a license
790under this part and authorizing statutes, the person or entity shall be subject to penalties as prescribed by
808authorizing statutes and applicable rules. Each day of continued operation is a separate offense.
822( 4) Any person or entity that fails to cease operation after agency notification may be fined $1,000 for
842each day of noncompliance.
846( 5) When a controlling interest or licensee has an interest in more than one provider and fails to license a
867provider rendering services that require licensure, the agency may revoke all licenses and impose actions
882under s. 408.814 and a fine of $1,000 per day, unless otherwise specified by authorizing statutes, against
900each licensee until such time as the appropriate license is obtained for the unlicensed operation.
915(6) In addition to granting injunctive relief pursuant to subsection (2), if the agency determines that a
932person or entity is operating or maintaining a provider without obtaining a license and determines that a
949condition exists that poses a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of a client of the provider, the person
969or entity is subject to the same actions and fines imposed against a licensee as specified in this part,
988authorizing statutes, and agency rules.
993(7) Any person aware of the operation of an unlicensed provider must report that provider to the agency.
