ORDERS:
CONSENT ORDER
This matter was initiated by a citation issued by the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) against Respondent, Lil
Cricket Food Stores, Inc. (Lil Cricket), for a violation of 23 S.C. Code Ann. Regulation 7-9(B) (Supp. 1999), for "permitting purchase
of beer by an individual under the age of twenty-one," on March 29, 2000. The South Carolina Department of Revenue (Department)
issued its Final Department Determination sustaining this violation and imposing a forty-five day suspension of Lil Cricket's beer and
wine permit. Lil Cricket appealed the matter and it was transmitted to the Administrative Law Judge Division (Division).
Prior to the hearing scheduled for November 9, 2000, at 10:00 a.m., the parties entered into an agreement resolving the matter. That
agreement is incorporated in this order.
The agreement between the parties is as follows:
1. For the violation on March 29, 2000, Lil Cricket agrees to serve a thirty day suspension. This suspension began November 13,
2000, and will run continuously for a period of thirty days.
2. Lil Cricket further agrees to install at its licensed location, 6522 White Horse Rd., Greenville, South Carolina, the VeriFone Open
Ruby System (System), no later than February 15, 2001, unless the contractor is unable to provide and install it by that date. If the
contractor fails to install the System by that date, Lil Cricket will provide the Department written documentation of the reasons
causing the failure to install and the new date of installation.
3. The Department accepts the above terms in satisfaction of the violation.
4. The parties further agree that this agreement is with prejudice.
I find this agreement to be fair and equitable, approve such agreement, and hereby order its adoption. This court retains continuing
jurisdiction to enforce this order.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
