      (b)   Has violated any provision of this act; or

      (c)   Has been convicted of or has pleaded guilty to a felony under the laws of this state, or any other state, or of the United States, or shall have forfeited his bond to appear in court to answer charges for any such offense, if such conviction or plea occurred subsequent to or within the ten (10) years immediately prior to the date of the licensee's application for the license.
