01-1733 Williams v. City of Lake Geneva

By: dmc-admin//March 18, 2002//

Listen to this article

“Once the City found that the Condoses’ 1999-2000 license was void, the Condoses could not apply for an appropriate liquor license via renewal of that void license. The only way for them to obtain an appropriate license was to file an application for an Original Alcohol Beverage License. In fact, the Condoses filed an application for a Renewal Alcohol Beverage License application and were granted a ‘renewed’ license. The ‘renewed’ license was as much of a legal nullity as the original voided 1999-2000 license because the City could not issue an appropriate license from a renewal application of a void license. In short, the 2000-2001 license, like the 1999-2000 license, was void by virtue of it being a ‘renewal’ of a void license.”

Judgment reversed and cause remanded.
