A Virginia individual was held liable in a 2026 administrative proceeding by another public agency. What connection must the administrative finding have to support an individual management bar?

Correct Answer

D) A ground where the matter relates to the duties of such a position

The grounds include the person having been convicted of or pled guilty or nolo contendere to any crime, held liable in any civil action by final judgment, or held liable in any administrative proceeding by any public agency, where the conviction, plea or holding involved an offense reasonably related to the qualifications, functions or duties of a person employed by or in a position of management or control of a licensee. Other choices: other agencies are named; a monetary penalty is not the test; and current employment is not required. Source: Va. Code § 6.2-1620(A)(2)
