Section 390:60-5-6 - Background investigation of applicants

(a) The requirements of the Act will necessitate an investigation into the personal history, employment history, and moral character of each applicant. Local, state, and federal criminal indices will be examined in the normal processing of applications for evidence of any prior criminal record. In addition to those offenses set forth in the Statutes, convictions of crimes set forth in Appendix A of this Chapter, shall be deemed as disqualifying convictions.

(b) Failure to provide the information necessary to complete this background investigation, including certified copies of Judgment and Sentence, shall preclude any further processing and shall result in denial of said application.

(c) One fingerprint fee is required of each applicant. The Applicant is responsible for paying any fees required.

(d) Fingerprint cards or electronically captured fingerprints submitted by an applicant which have been rejected by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) or Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), have failed to meet the statutory requirement for providing "classifiable fingerprints to enable the search of criminal indices for evidence of prior criminal record".

(1) Upon notice to CLEET from the OSBI or FBI that fingerprints have been rejected, CLEET shall send written notice to the applicant requesting resubmission of fingerprints.

(2) Failure to resubmit fingerprints within thirty (30) days of the request for resubmittal shall preclude any further processing of the application and may result in denial, suspension or revocation of any license held by the applicant.

(3) Upon the third rejection of fingerprints by the OSBI or FBI or the expiration of one-hundred-eighty days (180) days, whichever occurs first, from the original date of issuance of any license, such license shall be suspended or revoked until such time that classifiable fingerprints have been submitted and criminal history reports have been received from OSBI and FBI.

(e) An applicant shall state any and all names previously used by the applicant, and the date of any change of name.

(f) An applicant shall provide information on any previous licenses held as a bail enforcer in this state or other state, and any previous revocations or suspensions of any such license.
