ORDERS:
CONSENT ORDER
This matter was initialed by a citation issued by the South Carolina Law Enforcement
Division ("SLED") and the South Carolina Department of Revenue ("Department") against
Respondent for a violation of S.C. Code Ann. Section 12-21-2748 (Supp. 1996). On September
25, 1997, Respondent was cited for failure to affix owner/operator identification to a machine
licensed pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. Section 12-21-2720(A)(3) (Supp. 1996). A Department
Determination was issued sustaining the imposition of the violation and imposing a monetary
fine in the amount of $2,500.00 ($2,500 each machine that failed to have the identification) for
this violation.
Prior to the hearing on this matter, the parties resolved this matter. That agreement is
incorporated into this Order.
The agreement between the parties is as follows:
1. Respondente admits the violation and agrees to pay the monetary penalty imposed
by the Department of $500.00 no later than February 23, 1998.
2. In consideration of the above, the Department waives all other monetary penalties
as this is Respondent's first offense of this nature.
I find the above settlement to be fair and equitable, approve such settlement, and hereby
Order its adoption. This Court retains continuoing jurisdiction to enforce this Order. As the
parties no longer require a hearing on othis matter I also Order this matter Dismissed with
Prejudice.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
