Bill Summary

Relative to a certain requirement for on-premises liquor license applicants. Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 12 of Chapter 138 of the General Laws in Massachusetts, which relates to liquor license requirements. The key provision of the bill is the insertion of the word "felony" after the phrase "convicted of a" in line 116 of the existing law. This change would mean that on-premises liquor license applicants cannot have been convicted of a felony, in addition to the existing requirements.
