Source Evidence
Source text
Clearly, a major difference between BER Case 97-11 and the present case is that here, Engineer F had his contractor's license revoked because of actual demonstrated violation on Engineer F's part.

Clearly, a major difference between BER Case 97-11 and the present case is that here, Engineer F had his contractor's license revoked because of actual demonstrated violation on Engineer F's part.
The Board believes that this is a critical issue that makes the need for full disclosure a more important consideration than the circumstances described in BER Case 97-11.
The facts do not suggest a mere allegation, but instead an actual adjudication of wrongdoing.
