ORDERS:
CONSENT ORDER
The South Carolina Department of Revenue (“Department”) initiated this matter by issuing
a Final Determination that held that Worsley Operating Corporation, d/b/a Scotchman 98
(“Scotchman”), located at 1201 Remount Road, North Charleston, South Carolina, violated 23 S.C.
Code Ann. Regs. 7-9(B) (Supp. 2003), by “permitting the purchase of beer by a person under the age
of twenty-one.” Prior to a hearing on this matter, the parties resolved the issues. That agreement
is incorporated into this Consent Order as follows:
1.Scotchman admits that it permitted a person under the age of twenty-one to purchase
beer from its licensed location at the above address on May 15, 2003. For this violation, Scotchman
agrees to serve a suspension of its beer and wine permit at this location for a period of forty-five (45)
days. Scotchman will surrender its permit to the Department to begin service of the suspension on
March 1, 2004. The suspension will run continuously from day to day until the forty-five (45) day
suspension has been served.
2.The Department accepts the terms herein in full satisfaction of Scotchman’s violation
at issue here. Further, the parties freely and voluntarily entered into this agreement. The parties
agree that this agreement constitutes the full and final resolution of this violation and such is resolved
with prejudice.
I find this agreement to be fair and equitable, approve such settlement, and hereby Order its
adoption. This Division retains continuing jurisdiction to enforce this Order. As Petitioner no longer
requires a hearing on this matter, I also Order this matter RESOLVED with prejudice.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
