Bill Summary
Amends the Liquor Control Act of 1934. Provides that the maximum fine that may be levied against any licensee shall not exceed $20,000 per violation (instead of the maximum fine that may be levied against any licensee, for the period of the license, shall not exceed $20,000). Makes a conforming change. Effective immediately.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Liquor Control Act of 1934 to change how fines are applied to licensees, meaning businesses that hold a license to sell alcohol. Previously, the maximum fine for any violations over the entire period of a license was $20,000. This bill changes that to allow for a maximum fine of $20,000 *per violation*, meaning a licensee could potentially face much higher fines if they commit multiple violations. The bill also makes a conforming change to reflect this update and takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
