Why would I look there for criminal codes? That's a link to a board that doesn't make laws. People in this thread have stated that using the term engineer is illegal ( criminal). If this is true as people claim, I'd like to see a link to the law. That is all.
yeah, i don't think its criminal at all
i think the main thing lapels can do is fine you or not allow you to renew your Firm/Professional license
however, if your company has no reason to be licensed by lapels, you don't really have anything to lose it seems like

LAPELS is a governmental agency tied to the Secretary of State's office. By legislation, they have the right to levy fines for misrepresentation of professional licensure as it relates to Engineering and Surveying.
So, by definition presenting yourself as an "Engineer" in a public context is, in fact, illegal and can be sanctioned through fines regardless of a firm's/buisness' intent to get licensed. Throwing in "criminal" is semantics.........

An "engineer" just can't present himself to the public for work as an Engineer.
We have a shitton of engineers without PE licenses. Though technically to LAPELS, their work has to be supervised under a PE.
