§ 5-57-19. Grounds for denial of applications.

The licensing authority may deny the application for an alarm business license if it finds that the applicant or the individual having the authority and the responsibility for the management and operation of the applicant's alarm business within the state or the individual whom the applicant relies upon to comply with subsection (c) or (f) of § 5-57-16 or any of the applicant's owners, partners, or principal corporate officers have:

(1) Committed any act that, if committed by a licensee, would be grounds for the revocation of a license under § 5-57-25(a);

(2) While unlicensed, knowingly and willfully committed or aided and abetted in the commission of any act for which a license is required by this chapter; or

(3) Been convicted in any jurisdiction of the United States of a felony or a misdemeanor if the licensing authority finds that the conviction reflects unfavorably on the fitness of the applicant to engage in the alarm business.
