What happens to a licensee convicted of a crime committed before July 1, 1990?

A licensee convicted of a crime committed before July 1, 1990, is not subject to automatic revocation of their license or any penalties related to the conviction because of the regulations in place surrounding that timeframe. Prior to this date, the laws governing professional conduct, especially in fields like psychology, did not mandate punitive actions for those individuals with prior convictions. As a result, no action is taken against the license, allowing the professionals to continue their practice without any repercussions related to those offenses. This approach reflects an understanding of the historical context surrounding various offenses and the regulations applicable during that period. Thus, the licensee is allowed to retain their license without additional review or probationary measures stemming from those past convictions.
