Clarice Tarlynn Quinn,
Appellant,
vs.
State of Florida Department of Business and Professional
Regulation, Florida Real Estate Commission,
Appellee.
An Appeal from a Final Order of the State of Florida, Department of Business
and Professional Regulation Florida Real Estate Commission.
Clarice Tarlynn Quinn, in proper person.
Ashley Moody, Attorney General, and Marlene K. Stern, Senior Assistant
Attorney General (Tallahassee), for appellee.
Before FERANDEZ, HENDON, and GORDO, JJ.
FERNANDEZ, J.
Clarice Quinn appeals the Final Order of the Department of Business and
Professional Regulation, Florida Real Estate Commission, denying her application
for licensure as a real estate associate. Concluding that the Final Order is supported
by competent substantial evidence and that Quinn failed to preserve her argument
on appeal by failing to present it to the agency below, we affirm without further
discussion. See Muratti-Stuart v. Depโt of Bus. & Profโl Regulation, 174 So. 3d
538, 540 (Fla. 3d DCA 2015) (affirming the denial of a license application because
competent substantial evidence supported the decision); Bruner v. Bd. of Real
Estate, 399 So. 2d 4 (Fla. 5th DCA 1981) (finding that an adjudication withheld for
grand theft is sufficient evidence to support a denial of a license application); and
Castor v. State, 365 So. 2d 701, 703 (Fla. 1978) (โAs a general matter, a reviewing
court will not consider points raised for the first time on appeal.โ).
Affirmed.
