What it does
This bill eliminates the ability of an applicant for a liquor control license, wine permit, or beer permit to appeal the denial of the license or permit by the applicable local authority to the administrator of the alcoholic beverages division of the department of commerce. Instead, the bill provides that an applicant may seek judicial review of the denial of the license or permit by filing an action in the H.F. district court of the county where the premises covered by the application is located.
