Section 61-2-150. Subsequent tenants.
Universal Citation: SC Code § 61-2-150 (2021)
If a fine is imposed by the department for a violation by a beer, wine or liquor licensee, and the licensee fails to pay the fine and ceases doing business on the premises where the violation occurred, the department must not require a subsequent tenant of the premises to pay the fine as a condition to being issued a beer, wine, or liquor license. However, this prohibition does not apply to any person who is related by blood within the third degree or marriage to, is in business with, or is acting for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, the licensee so fined.
The burden is on the new tenant to prove that no such relationship exists between him and the licensee.
HISTORY: 1996 Act No. 415, Section 1.
