asked

As a licensed real estate broker acting on behalf of my out-of-state owner (brother-in-law) under a power of attorney, I obtained permits from the Building Department that I later found out were unnecessary. I am not a home builder and never claimed to be one. The state inspector issued a stop work order, and I was later charged with acting as a home builder without a license. I am a licensed real estate agent under the Alabama Real Estate Commission. What are the legal implications of this situation, and how can I defend myself against these charges?
