SD Codified L § 36-20B-14 (through 2011) What's This?
36-20B-14. "Good moral character" defined. Good moral character for purposes of § 36-20B-13 means lack of a history of dishonest or felonious acts. The board may refuse to grant a certificate on the ground of failure to satisfy this requirement only if there is a substantial connection between the lack of good moral character of the applicant and the professional responsibilities of a licensee and if the finding by the board or lack of good moral character is supported by clear and convincing evidence. If an applicant is found to be unqualified for a certificate because of a lack of good moral character, the board shall furnish the applicant a statement containing the findings of the board, a complete record of the evidence upon which the determination was based, and a notice of the applicant's right of appeal.
