How many years is a person disqualified after the completion of a sentence for a Class A misdemeanor?

  1. 3

  2. 5

  3. 7

  4. 10

The correct answer is: 5

A person is disqualified for a period of five years after completing a sentence for a Class A misdemeanor. This regulation is important for individuals seeking to obtain a license, as it ensures that those with a recent criminal history are not granted immediate access to positions of trust and responsibility. The five-year disqualification period reflects a balance between allowing individuals the opportunity for rehabilitation while also maintaining public safety and the integrity of the private investigation profession. This time frame allows for a sufficient cooldown period during which the individual can demonstrate a commitment to lawful behavior and responsible practices before being considered for licensure.
