The terminated electrical contractor filed a complaint with DBPR against the owner accusing him of practicing as a contractor without a license.

The commercial project has a contractor who pulled the permit and manages the project on DAILY basis and the owner is appointed by the contractor as the project manager. The owner signed the work contract with the terminated electrical contractor and paid him directly in coordination with and under supervision of the contractor.

DBPR stated "By subcontracting to the electrical contractor, owner may be practicing as a contractor without a license..." 

Multiple prime contracts in chapter 8 of the contractor manual, allows the owner to directly contract with specialized trades such as electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc., etc., and also to coordinate the work of the various contractors... 

Opinions please.
