Under the Michigan Occupational Code, Act 299 of 1980, which of the following is NOT a recognized ground for disciplinary action against a Michigan real estate licensee?

Correct Answer

C) Failing to renew a license within 30 days of expiration due to a medical emergency

Under MCL 339.2511, the recognized grounds for disciplinary action include fraud, misrepresentation, commingling, and dishonest dealing, among others. Failing to renew a license within 30 days of expiration due to a documented medical emergency is not itself a disciplinary ground under Act 299; Michigan provides administrative processes for late renewal and reinstatement. While a lapsed license means the individual cannot legally practice, it is treated as an administrative/renewal matter rather than a disciplinary ground in the same category as fraud or commingling.

Answer Options
A
Making a material misrepresentation in a real estate transaction
B
Commingling client trust funds with personal or operating funds
C
Failing to renew a license within 30 days of expiration due to a medical emergency
D
Engaging in fraud or dishonest dealing in a real estate transaction
