The Florida DHSMV will not issue a driver license to anyone whose license is not valid in any other state. The out of state issues need to be cleared prior to receiving a Florida license.

If he had an unpaid fine, then yes, they can suspend his license until it is paid in full. If you think he paid all his fines, and this was a mistake, you'd have to go through your paperwork and the court's file to doublecheck.
