Final answer:
If a licensee has been found guilty of a felony, their license will likely be revoked or denied renewal, as felony convictions often result in exclusion from certain rights and privileges, including professional licenses.
Step-by-step explanation:
A license of a licensee who has pled guilty or nolo contendere to, or has been convicted of a felony, will not be automatically renewed, temporarily suspended, or upgraded to a higher level. Instead, the correct answer is: Option 3: Will be revoked or denied renewal. This is because individuals who have been found guilty of a felony face various legal consequences, including the possibility of being excluded from certain civic responsibilities and privileges.
This can often include the revocation or denial of professional licenses. In the context of voting rights, for example, states can legally deny the right to vote to those who have committed felonies. The level of disenfranchisement varies from state to state, but overall, the denial or revocation of licenses and other rights is a common penalty for felony convictions.
