5-6-09 Circus Liquors v. Middletown Township (A-25/53-08)

5-6-09 Circus Liquors, Inc. v. Governing Body of Middletown
Township (A-25/53-08)

With the Director’s express authority to revoke, or to suspend,
alcoholic beverage licenses comes the implied power to control
the divestiture of interest in an improperly issued license. It
was not arbitrary, capricious, or unreasonable for the Director
to apply the remedy of divestiture in this matter to enforce
compliance with the two-license limit created by N.J.S.A. 33:1-
12.31.
