| OR | Signed into law 07/2005 | Postsec. | From Staff Measure Summary (Fiscal Note): A person desiring to conduct business as an athlete agent in the State of Oregon is required to obtain an athlete agent permit from the Department of Education. The permit for the athlete is for one year and the applicant must pay a non-refundable fee, attest they have not been convicted of any crime listed in ORS 342.143, and submit to a criminal background check.

The bill would also require the agents to disclose their training, experience, and education, whether they or an associate have been convicted of a felony or crime of moral turpitude,
have been administratively or judicially determined to have made false or deceptive representations, have had their agents license denied, suspended or revoked in any state, or have been the subject or cause of any sanction, suspension or declaration of ineligibility. http://www.leg.state.or.us/05reg/measpdf/hb3100.dir/hb3179.en.pdf
