- Veronica Fulton; The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Volume 45, No. 43, of the March 4, 2019, Florida Administrative Register. The Board reviewed the Petition as its meeting held on April 25 and 26, 2019, in Tampa, FL. The Board’s Order, filed on June 27, 2019, found that the petition was not in substantial compliance with the provisions of Section 120.565, F.S., and Chapter 28-105, F.A.C. The Board also found that Petitioner inquired as to how the Statute relates to a group of persons, specifically, Florida licensed massage therapists. In addition, Petitioner does not specify her particular training regarding “foam rolling,” and instruction to clients. The Board declines to respond to the request for declaratory statement as presented.

- Joy P. Ewertz, Esq.,; The Notice of the Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Volume 45, No. 111, of the June 24, 2019, issue of the Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner sought the Commission’s opinion as to the applicability of Rule 61J2-3.018; 61J2-3.012; 61J2-3.020, F.A.C., and Section 475.172(2)(b)1, F.S., regarding satisfaction of or exemptions to any Real Estate Broker pre-license education and testing requirements under the cited rules and statutes. The Board reviewed the Petition at its meeting held on July 17, 2019. The Commission’s Order, filed on August 9, 2019, granted the petition to issue a declaratory statement, and under the facts and circumstances outlined by the Petitioner in the Petition and attachments, the Commission answers the questions posed in the negative. That is, graduation from the Florida State University College of Law, admission to the Florida bar, and an active practice in the area of real estate do not meet the statutory criteria for eligibility for licensure as a Real Estate Broker.
