Under Connecticut General Statutes Chapter 392, all of the following are grounds for the CREC to discipline a Connecticut real estate licensee EXCEPT:

Correct Answer

A) Failing to renew a license before the expiration date due to a documented medical emergency

Under CGS Chapter 392, the CREC has disciplinary authority over licensees for violations such as commingling, misrepresentation, and CUTPA violations. However, failing to renew a license due to a documented medical emergency is not itself a disciplinary ground under Chapter 392. Connecticut law recognizes that license lapses due to genuine hardship or medical emergency may be addressed through reinstatement procedures rather than formal disciplinary action. The CREC's disciplinary grounds focus on intentional misconduct, fraud, and violations of statutory duties—not administrative lapses caused by documented emergencies.
