To impose fines of between $5,000 to $25,000, and one year in prison for a first offense by an architect, surveyor or engineer who is convicted of practicing without a license, two years for a subsequent offense, and four years for an offense that "causes" a serious death or injury. The bill would also allow customers of an unlicensed practitioner to sue for a refund. These penalties would not apply to designers of detached single-family residences or duplexes.
