Status: in_force

164.6911 Office may refuse to issue certificate -- Renewal of registration.

(1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (2) of this section, the department shall

issue a certificate of registration to an individual who complies with KRS

164.6909(1).

(2) The department may refuse to issue a certificate of registration if the department

determines that the applicant has engaged in conduct that significantly adversely

reflects on the applicant's fitness to act as an athlete agent. In making the

determination, the department may consider whether the applicant has:

(a) Pleaded guilty or no contest to, been convicted of, or has charges pending for

a crime that involves sexual misconduct, has dishonesty as a necessary

element, or is a felony if committed in this state;

(b) Made a materially false, misleading, deceptive, or fraudulent representation in

the application or as an athlete agent;

(c) Engaged in conduct that would disqualify the applicant from serving in a

fiduciary capacity;

(d) Engaged in conduct prohibited by KRS 164.6925;

(e) Had a registration as an athlete agent suspended, revoked, or denied in any

state;

(f) Been refused renewal of registration or licensure as an athlete agent in any

state;

(g) Engaged in conduct resulting in the imposition of a sanction, suspension, or

declaration of ineligibility to participate in an interscholastic, intercollegiate,

or professional athletic event on a student-athlete or a sanction on an

educational institution; or

(h) Engaged in conduct that significantly adversely reflects on the applicant's

credibility, honesty, or integrity.

(3) In making a determination under subsection (2) of this section, the department shall

consider:

(a) How recently the conduct occurred;

(b) The nature of the conduct and the context in which it occurred; and

(c) Any other relevant conduct of the applicant.

(4) An athlete agent registered under subsection (1) of this section may apply to renew

a registration by submitting an application for renewal in a form prescribed by the

department. An application filed under this section is a public record. The applicant

shall sign the application for renewal under penalty of perjury and include current

information on all matters required in an original registration.

(5) An athlete agent registered under KRS 164.6909(3) may renew the registration by

proceeding under subsection (4) of this section or, if the registration in the other

state has been renewed, by submitting to the department copies of the application

for renewal in the other state and the renewed registration from the other state. The

department shall renew the registration if the department determines:

(a) The registration requirements of the other state are substantially similar to or

more restrictive than the Commonwealth's; and

(b) The renewed registration has not been suspended or revoked and no action

involving the individual's conduct as an athlete agent is pending against the

individual or the individual's registration in any state.

(6) A certificate of registration or a renewal of registration is valid for two (2) years.
