The Florida Office of Financial Regulation issued a final order denying Evan Zlotnick’s petition for a waiver of the Series 65 examination requirement under Rule 69W-600.0024, Florida Administrative Code. The agency determined the petition failed to meet statutory criteria for a variance or waiver because it lacked proper captioning, omitted the implementing statute citation, and did not specify whether the requested relief was permanent or temporary. Additionally, Zlotnick forfeited his right to an administrative hearing by failing to respond to the agency’s notice of intent within the mandated twenty-one-day period, leaving the denial as the final agency action subject to judicial review.
