    (b)

    Convictions. No person shall be licensed as a surety recovery agent who has been found guilty, either after a trial or as a result of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere, of a disqualifying offense or of any other act in another jurisdiction that would be a disqualifying offense if committed in the state unless having been free from the jurisdiction of the city, state or of the United States for not less than five years prior to the time of applying for a surety recovery agent license.

    (c)

    Suspended imposition of sentence. No person shall be licensed as a surety recovery agent who has entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere, but for which imposition of sentence has been suspended, of a disqualifying offense or of any other act in another jurisdiction that would be a disqualifying offense if committed in the state unless having been free from the jurisdiction of the city, state or of the United States for not less than five years prior to the time of applying for a surety recovery agent license.

    (d)

    Waiver of disqualifying offense. The director may determine that an otherwise disqualifying offense should not be interposed as a disqualification to licensing based upon the date of the conviction, the conduct of the applicant since the date of the conviction, and other evidence as to the applicant's character. The director may require the applicant to submit information necessary to determine whether the applicant's previous convictions should preclude licensing as a surety recovery agent.
