Athlete agents.
Summary
Existing law, the Miller-Ayala Athlete Agents Act, regulates specified activities of an athlete agent in representing or seeking to represent student athletes and professional athletes, and authorizes certain civil remedies for its violation. The act also makes a violation of its provisions a misdemeanor offense and authorizes the court to suspend or revoke the privilege of a person to conduct the business of an athlete agent if the person is convicted of a violation of the act. This bill would, instead, require the court to suspend, or where appropriate, revoke the privilege of a person to conduct the business of an athlete agent if the person is convicted of a violation of the act. The bill would also require the court to order an athlete agent or an athlete agent's representative or employee to disgorge all consideration received in connection with a violation of the act, and would specify the distribution of those disgorged moneys.
