made in writing and before the license expires.
2. The Secretary-Treasurer may reinstate an
inactive license upon the written request of an inactive licensee who has
maintained an active license and practice outside this State during the time

inactive licensee must:
(a) Pay the
appropriate renewal fees;
(b)
Provide a list of his or her employment during the time the license was
inactive;
(c) Report all claims of
unprofessional conduct or professional incompetence against him or her or any
violation of the law which he or she may have committed, including
administrative disciplinary charges brought by any other
jurisdiction;

or she has been held civilly or criminally liable in this State, another state
or territory of the United States or the District of Columbia for misconduct
relating to his or her occupation or profession;

pending;
(h) Satisfy the
Secretary-Treasurer that he or she is of good moral character; and
(i) Provide any other information which the
Secretary-Treasurer may require, before the license may be reinstated. In
determining whether the licensee is of good moral character, the

another state has been suspended or revoked or whether the licensee is
currently involved in any disciplinary action concerning the license in that
state.
