I'm no lawyer but I have looked into it.

Basically any out of state conviction was not an issue.

Then it got murky with 3 to 9 year waiting periods to be able to ASK to get the right back.

People don't realize that a felony conviction can make you lose a professional license for life, hence your ability to make a living is lost.

FL regulates and licenses many, many professions, I can't list them all but it's a lot.

Well that was the point of license in the first place

for example a man convicted of bank robbery should never be approved to have a license to install burglar alarm systems.

That made sense

But now if that man washes his commercial alarm installation truck with the wrong soap and gets a felony conviction, what does that have to do with installing alarm systems?

The problem is we have made too much stuff felonies

When you think of felonies people think of bank robbery, breaking and entry, murder, rape, child abduction, drug dealing, serious crimes that one would get years in prison for.

No one thinks washing your truck with the wrong soap, drunk driving, public urination, speeding down the highway at excessive speed, weed possession etc are felony convictions.
