No person performing any licensed service may sue for compensation in court without what?

• A. Proving licensure
• B. Providing a bond
• C. Proving business registration
• D. Providing a license number

Answer: (A)

The essential idea is that the right to pursue compensation for a licensed service is conditioned on having a valid license. Courts require proof that the person performing the service is legally authorized to do so; without that proof, the claim to be paid can be blocked because the activity would be considered unlicensed practice.

Providing a bond might be required for performance or licensure but it doesn’t itself prove you are licensed to perform the service. Business registration shows the business exists but doesn’t certify that the specific licensed service is authorized. A license number by itself isn’t enough unless it verifies an active, valid license; the key factor is proving you hold an active license authorizing the service.
