What stinks about this entire situation is the business now has to hire a lawyer and spend money to fight a citation that should have never been written.

That may be the most worthless state agency ever.

Isn't the commissioner resigning or something?

"They kept asking me to give another cup so they could separate the drink, and I was like I can't do that because you're a minor," said waitress Ashleigh Burdette.

But just after 10 p.m., as the older customer leaves the table to go to the restroom, the underage patron takes the drink off the table and walks outside with it. The females were undercover operatives for the Alcohol Tobacco Commission, or ATC, which wrote a warning to the business and a $500 citation to the waitress, both for serving a minor.

"The fact of watching my staff do the entire right thing, carding her, telling her no, going as far as to give two separate tickets to each individual person showing that the person who was underage was not served, the one that was was served, it's just kind of disheartening," said owner Jennifer Mier.

For the lazy.


That's some BS though.

They will always fall back into this kind of crap. Its not about the law its about using whatever power you have to frick people up. Get an arrest or charge by any means.

Exactly!

What if an underage person stole alcohol? Would it be the fault of the business? Kinda what that agent did right there. She was not served the drink, she took it.

Great line from the article.

quote:

The ATC says every violation is awarded a hearing, in which cases can be dropped depending on the evidence presented.


They say it like they are going above and beyond. You know, you might be wrongly accused and go thousands out of pocket to defend yourself, BUT WE MIGHT let you go at that point.

If you do, the owner quoted (Jennifer Mier) is Hokie Gajan's daughter.
