3. a. An applicant for licensure or certification under P.L.1991, c.68 (C.45:14F-1 et seq.) shall not be eligible for licensure or certification, as the case may be, and any holder of a license or certification under P.L.1991, c.68 (C.45:14F-1 et seq.) shall have his license or certification revoked if the State Real Estate Appraiser Board determines, consistent with the requirements and standards of this section and section 4 of P.L.1997, c.401 (C.45:14F-10.2), that criminal history record information exists on file in the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Identification Division, or in the State Bureau of Identification in the Division of State Police, which would disqualify that individual from being licensed or certified. An applicant or a holder of a license or certification shall be disqualified from licensure or certification if that individual's criminal history record check reveals a record of conviction of any of the following crimes and offenses:

(1)In New Jersey, any crime or disorderly persons offense:

(a)Involving danger to the person, meaning those crimes and disorderly persons offenses set forth in N.J.S.2C:11-1 et seq., N.J.S.2C:12-1 et seq., N.J.S.2C:13-1 et seq., N.J.S.2C:14-1 et seq., or N.J.S.2C:15-1 et seq.; or

(b)Involving theft as set forth in chapter 20 of Title 2C of the New Jersey Statutes; or

(c)Involving any controlled dangerous substances or controlled substance analog as set forth in chapter 35 of Title 2C of the New Jersey Statutes except as set forth in paragraph (4) of subsection a. of N.J.S.2C:35-10.

(2)In any other state or jurisdiction, conduct which, if committed in New Jersey, would constitute any of the crimes or disorderly persons offenses described in paragraph (1) of this subsection.

b.Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection a. of this section, no individual shall be disqualified from licensure or certification on the basis of any conviction disclosed by a criminal history record check performed pursuant to this section if the individual has affirmatively demonstrated to the board clear and convincing evidence of his rehabilitation. In determining whether an individual has affirmatively demonstrated rehabilitation, the following factors shall be considered:

(1)The nature and responsibility of the position which the convicted individual would hold;

(2)The nature and seriousness of the offense;

(3)The circumstances under which the offense occurred;

(4)The date of the offense;

(5)The age of the individual when the offense was committed;

(6)Whether the offense was an isolated or repeated incident;

(7)Any social conditions which may have contributed to the offense; and

(8)Any evidence of rehabilitation, including good conduct in prison or in the community, counseling or psychiatric treatment received, acquisition of additional academic or vocational schooling, successful participation in correctional work-release programs, or the recommendation of persons who have had the individual under their supervision.
