Bill > S00100

This bill modifies the New York State Alcoholic Beverage Control Law to allow retail licensees who sell alcoholic beverages for off-premises consumption to sell those beverages on credit under specific conditions. Specifically, the bill permits a retail licensee to sell, deliver, give away, hold, or store alcoholic beverages on credit to an individual person, but only when the total order on credit is at least $200. This means that a customer can now purchase alcoholic beverages and pay for them later, as long as the total purchase meets the $200 minimum threshold. The bill also clarifies that the retail licensee can retain the alcoholic beverages for the individual during this process. This change represents a modification to existing regulations that previously may have prohibited or restricted credit sales of alcoholic beverages, potentially providing more flexibility for both retailers and consumers in purchasing alcoholic beverages. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
