Introduction

 

This case was scheduled to be brought on for hearing before the Kentucky Alcoholic Beverage Control Board on February 2, 2005, pursuant to an order directing the Licensee to show cause, if any it could, why its alcoholic beverage licenses should not be suspended or revoked because of alleged violations of: (1) KRS 244.080(1), Sale to a Minor; and, (2) KRS 243.390, Bad Corporate Standing.

Findings of Fact/Conclusions of Law

 

            Prior to a hearing being held, the Licensee, through its President, Mr. Anthony Johnson, admitted the violations by letter dated January 31, 2005.  The Board takes administrative notice that the Licensee had a prior violation of KRS 244.080(1) within a two (2) year period.[1]   The Board takes administrative notice of the fact that the Licensee has corrected its standing with the Office of the Secretary of State of Kentucky.
