Section 100.230 Resumption of
Business on Appeal
a) In any case where a licensee appeals to the Illinois
Liquor Control Commission from an order of the local liquor
control commission, fining, suspending or revoking a license, or
denying a renewal application and in which latter circumstance
said licensee shall have on deposit with the Local Liquor Control
Commission an amount sufficient to cover the license fee for the
renewal period and any bond that may be required, the licensee
may resume the operation of the licensed business pending the
decision of the Illinois Liquor Control Commission and the
expiration of the time allowed for an application for rehearing.
b) Second or subsequent Suspension or Revocation
1) The foregoing shall not apply to the appeal of a suspension or
revocation order entered by a Local Liquor Control Commissioner
that is the second or subsequent such suspension or revocation
placed upon that licensee within the preceding 12-month period.
2) In such event, the licensee shall cease all activity otherwise
authorized by the liquor license.
c) If in the event of a hearing upon a second or subsequent
revocation as stated above, the State Liquor Control Commission
reverses or modifies the action of the Local Liquor Control
Commissioner, the licensee may immediately resume operation of
the licensed business pursuant to the terms of the State
Commission's order.
d) If an application for rehearing is filed in either a first
revocation, suspension or fine situation, or a second or
subsequent revocation or fine that the State Commission has
reversed or modified, the licensee may continue the operation of
the licensed business until the denial of the application or if
the rehearing is granted, until the decision on rehearing.
