Aiding and abeting unlicensed practice

[Steve Martin]

Does anyone have a quick link to enforcement cases on aiding and abetting unlicensed practice?

Steve,

There is this:

MANUEL, LORETO MONTA (Click here to see the related disciplinary action against Fred Guenther)
Land Surveyor L 5045
Accusation 409-A
Effective March 13, 1995: REVOKED
Effective December 9, 1998: Petition for Reinstatement Denied

The Board has taken disciplinary action against Land Surveyor License L 5045 issued to Loreto Monta Manuel. The Board ordered Manuel's license revoked, effective March 13, 1995.

The Board determined that Manuel violated Business and Professions Code sections 8780(a), (c), (e), and (f) for failing to follow applicable laws and regulations in performing a survey, negligence in performing a survey, incompetence in performing a survey, and aiding and abetting Fred Guenther in violating the Professional Land Surveyors Act.

On June 22, 1998, revoked former licensee Fred Guenther, who obtained a special power of attorney from Loreto Manuel, signed and filed a Petition for Reinstatement of Revoked License on Manuel's behalf.

On September 18, 1998, Guenther appeared before the Board; Manuel was not present. Guenther told the Board that Manuel would promise the Board to pay his fees, keep the Board informed of his whereabouts, and undertake certain corrective actions relating to the property in Brisbane which led to the 1995 revocation, but no supporting evidence was presented. The Board found that Manuel presented no evidence of rehabilitation and that there was no showing that he understands why his license was disciplined or that he will not conduct himself similarly in the future. The Board denied the petition for reinstatement.

Thanks Warren,

There was another one about a retired Surveyor stamping the work of two unlicensed guys running a business. I'll see if I can find that one.
