Frank Boyd Hall of Las Vegas-based Curtis Construction pleaded guilty in District Court to 44 felony charges of obtaining money under false pretenses, diversion of funds and theft, according to the Nevada State Contractors Board.

The plea agreement states that Hall must pay restitution totaling more than $350,000 to 41 victims, sign a civil confession of judgment, stay out of trouble and not perform any contracting work, own or work for any contracting business. Hall's sentencing is scheduled for June 27.

Hall was previously president of Capitol Builders and Development Inc. until he had his license revoked by the Nevada State Contractors Board in June 2003. Hall unlawfully assumed control of Curtis Construction in July 2003 without obtaining a license or obtaining approval of the board, the Contractors Board reported. Curtis Construction's license was later revoked by the Contractors Board in June 2004 because of Hall's actions, according to the Contractors Board.
