Control Commission shall purchase or receive any | ||||||
| 14 | alcoholic liquor, the
order for which was solicited or offered | ||||||
| 15 | for sale to such retailer by a
broker unless the broker is the | ||||||
| 16 | holder of a valid broker's license. | ||||||
| 17 | The broker shall, upon the acceptance by a retailer of the | ||||||
| 18 | broker's
solicitation of an order or offer to sell or supply or | ||||||
| 19 | deliver or have
delivered alcoholic liquors, promptly forward | ||||||
| 20 | to the Illinois Liquor
Control Commission a notification of | ||||||
| 21 | said transaction in such form as
the Commission may by | ||||||
| 22 | regulations prescribe. | ||||||
| 23 | (ii) A broker's license shall be required of
a person | ||||||
| 24 | within this State, other than a retail licensee,
who, for a fee | ||||||
| 25 | or commission, promotes, solicits, or accepts orders for
| ||||||
| 26 | alcoholic liquor, for use or consumption and not for
resale, to | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | be shipped from this State and delivered to residents outside | ||||||
| 2 | of
this State by an express company, common carrier, or | ||||||
| 3 | contract carrier.
This Section does not apply to any person who | ||||||
| 4 | promotes, solicits, or accepts
orders for wine as specifically | ||||||
| 5 | authorized in Section 6-29 of this Act. | ||||||
| 6 | A broker's license under this subsection (l)
shall not | ||||||
| 7 | entitle the holder to
buy or sell any
alcoholic liquors for his | ||||||
| 8 | own account or to take or deliver title to
such alcoholic | ||||||
| 9 | liquors. | ||||||
| 10 | This subsection (l)
shall not apply to distributors, | ||||||
| 11 | employees of
distributors, or employees of a manufacturer who | ||||||
| 12 | has registered the
trademark, brand or name of the alcoholic | ||||||
| 13 | liquor pursuant to Section 6-9
of this Act, and who regularly | ||||||
| 14 | sells such alcoholic liquor
in the State of Illinois only to | ||||||
| 15 | its registrants thereunder. | ||||||
| 16 | Any agent, representative, or person subject to | ||||||
| 17 | registration pursuant to
subsection (a-1) of this Section shall | ||||||
| 18 | not be eligible to receive a broker's
license. | ||||||
| 19 | (m) A non-resident dealer's license shall permit such | ||||||
| 20 | licensee to ship
into and warehouse alcoholic liquor into this | ||||||
| 21 | State from any point
outside of this State, and to sell such | ||||||
| 22 | alcoholic liquor to Illinois licensed
foreign importers and | ||||||
| 23 | importing distributors and to no one else in this State;
| ||||||
| 24 | provided that (i) said non-resident dealer shall register with | ||||||
| 25 | the Illinois Liquor
Control Commission each and every brand of | ||||||
| 26 | alcoholic liquor which it proposes
to sell to Illinois | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | licensees during the license period, (ii) it shall comply with | ||||||
| 2 | all of the provisions of Section 6-9 hereof with
respect to | ||||||
| 3 | registration of such Illinois licensees as may be granted the | ||||||
| 4 | right
to sell such brands at wholesale, and (iii) the | ||||||
| 5 | non-resident dealer shall comply with the provisions of | ||||||
| 6 | Sections 6-5 and 6-6 of this Act to the same extent that these | ||||||
| 7 | provisions apply to manufacturers. | ||||||
| 8 | (n) A brew pub license shall allow the licensee to only (i) | ||||||
| 9 | manufacture up to 155,000 gallons of beer per year only
on the | ||||||
| 10 | premises specified in the license, (ii) make sales of the
beer | ||||||
| 11 | manufactured on the premises or, with the approval of the | ||||||
| 12 | Commission, beer manufactured on another brew pub licensed | ||||||
| 13 | premises that is wholly owned and operated by the same licensee | ||||||
| 14 | to importing distributors, distributors,
and to non-licensees | ||||||
| 15 | for use and consumption, (iii) store the beer upon
the | ||||||
| 16 | premises, (iv) sell and offer for sale at retail from the | ||||||
| 17 | licensed
premises for off-premises
consumption no more than | ||||||
| 18 | 155,000 gallons per year so long as such sales are only made | ||||||
| 19 | in-person, (v) sell and offer for sale at retail for use and | ||||||
| 20 | consumption on the premises specified in the license any form | ||||||
| 21 | of alcoholic liquor purchased from a licensed distributor or | ||||||
| 22 | importing distributor, and (vi) with the prior approval of the | ||||||
| 23 | Commission, annually transfer no more than 155,000 gallons of | ||||||
| 24 | beer manufactured on the premises to a licensed brew pub wholly | ||||||
| 25 | owned and operated by the same licensee. | ||||||
| 26 | A brew pub licensee shall not under any circumstance sell | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | or offer for sale beer manufactured by the brew pub licensee to | ||||||
| 2 | retail licensees. | ||||||
| 3 | A person who holds a class 2 brewer license may | ||||||
| 4 | simultaneously hold a brew pub license if the class 2 brewer | ||||||
| 5 | (i) does not, under any circumstance, sell or offer for sale | ||||||
| 6 | beer manufactured by the class 2 brewer to retail licensees; | ||||||
| 7 | (ii) does not hold more than 3 brew pub licenses in this State; | ||||||
| 8 | (iii) does not manufacture more than a combined 3,720,000 | ||||||
| 9 | gallons of beer per year, including the beer manufactured at | ||||||
| 10 | the brew pub; and (iv) is not a member of or affiliated with, | ||||||
| 11 | directly or indirectly, a manufacturer that produces more than | ||||||
| 12 | 3,720,000 gallons of beer per year or any other alcoholic | ||||||
| 13 | liquor. | ||||||
| 14 | Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, a licensed | ||||||
| 15 | brewer, class 2 brewer, or non-resident dealer who before July | ||||||
| 16 | 1, 2015 manufactured less than than 3,720,000 gallons of beer | ||||||
| 17 | per year and held a brew pub license on or before July 1, 2015 | ||||||
| 18 | may (i) continue to qualify for and hold that brew pub license | ||||||
| 19 | for the licensed premises and (ii) manufacture more than | ||||||
| 20 | 3,720,000 gallons of beer per year and continue to qualify for | ||||||
| 21 | and hold that brew pub license if that brewer, class 2 brewer, | ||||||
| 22 | or non-resident dealer does not simultaneously hold a class 1 | ||||||
| 23 | brewer license and is not a member of or affiliated with, | ||||||
| 24 | directly or indirectly, a manufacturer that produces more than | ||||||
| 25 | 3,720,000 gallons of beer per year or that produces any other | ||||||
| 26 | alcoholic liquor. | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | (o) A caterer retailer license shall allow the holder
to | ||||||
| 2 | serve alcoholic liquors as an incidental part of a food service | ||||||
| 3 | that serves
prepared meals which excludes the serving of snacks | ||||||
| 4 | as
the primary meal, either on or off-site whether licensed or | ||||||
| 5 | unlicensed. | ||||||
| 6 | (p) An auction liquor license shall allow the licensee to | ||||||
| 7 | sell and offer
for sale at auction wine and spirits for use or | ||||||
| 8 | consumption, or for resale by
an Illinois liquor licensee in | ||||||
| 9 | accordance with provisions of this Act. An
auction liquor | ||||||
| 10 | license will be issued to a person and it will permit the
| ||||||
| 11 | auction liquor licensee to hold the auction anywhere in the | ||||||
| 12 | State. An auction
liquor license must be obtained for each | ||||||
| 13 | auction at least 14 days in advance of
the auction date. | ||||||
| 14 | (q) A special use permit license shall allow an Illinois | ||||||
| 15 | licensed
retailer to transfer a portion of its alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 16 | inventory from its
retail licensed premises to the premises | ||||||
| 17 | specified in the license hereby
created, and to sell or offer | ||||||
| 18 | for sale at retail, only in the premises
specified in the | ||||||
| 19 | license hereby created, the transferred alcoholic liquor for
| ||||||
| 20 | use or consumption, but not for resale in any form. A special | ||||||
| 21 | use permit
license may be granted for the following time | ||||||
| 22 | periods: one day or less; 2 or
more days to a maximum of 15 days | ||||||
| 23 | per location in any 12 month period. An
applicant for the | ||||||
| 24 | special use permit license must also submit with the
| ||||||
| 25 | application proof satisfactory to the State Commission that the | ||||||
| 26 | applicant will
provide dram shop liability insurance to the | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | maximum limits and have local
authority approval. | ||||||
| 2 | (r) A winery shipper's license shall allow a person
with a | ||||||
| 3 | first-class or second-class wine manufacturer's
license, a | ||||||
| 4 | first-class or second-class wine-maker's license,
or a limited | ||||||
| 5 | wine manufacturer's license or who is licensed to
make wine | ||||||
| 6 | under the laws of another state to ship wine
made by that | ||||||
| 7 | licensee directly to a resident of this
State who is 21 years | ||||||
| 8 | of age or older for that resident's
personal use and not for | ||||||
| 9 | resale. Prior to receiving a
winery shipper's license, an | ||||||
| 10 | applicant for the license must
provide the Commission with a | ||||||
| 11 | true copy of its current
license in any state in which it is | ||||||
| 12 | licensed as a manufacturer
of wine. An applicant for a winery | ||||||
| 13 | shipper's license must
also complete an application form that | ||||||
| 14 | provides any other
information the Commission deems necessary. | ||||||
| 15 | The application form shall include all addresses from which the | ||||||
| 16 | applicant for a winery shipper's license intends to ship wine, | ||||||
| 17 | including the name and address of any third party authorized to | ||||||
| 18 | ship wine on behalf of the manufacturer. The
application form | ||||||
| 19 | shall include an acknowledgement consenting
to the | ||||||
| 20 | jurisdiction of the Commission, the Illinois
Department of | ||||||
| 21 | Revenue, and the courts of this State concerning
the | ||||||
| 22 | enforcement of this Act and any related laws, rules, and
| ||||||
| 23 | regulations, including authorizing the Department of Revenue
| ||||||
| 24 | and the Commission to conduct audits for the purpose of
| ||||||
| 25 | ensuring compliance with this amendatory Act, and an | ||||||
| 26 | acknowledgement that the wine manufacturer is in compliance | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | with Section 6-2 of this Act. Any third party authorized to | ||||||
| 2 | ship wine on behalf of a first-class or second-class wine | ||||||
| 3 | manufacturer's licensee, a first-class or second-class | ||||||
| 4 | wine-maker's licensee, a limited wine manufacturer's licensee, | ||||||
| 5 | or a person who is licensed to make wine under the laws of | ||||||
| 6 | another state shall also be disclosed by the winery shipper's | ||||||
| 7 | licensee, and a copy of the written appointment of the | ||||||
| 8 | third-party wine provider to the wine manufacturer shall be | ||||||
| 9 | filed with the State Commission as a supplement to the winery | ||||||
| 10 | shipper's license application or any renewal thereof. The | ||||||
| 11 | winery shipper's license holder shall affirm under penalty of | ||||||
| 12 | perjury, as part of the winery shipper's license application or | ||||||
| 13 | renewal, that he or she only ships wine, either directly or | ||||||
| 14 | indirectly through a third-party provider, from the licensee's | ||||||
| 15 | own production. | ||||||
| 16 | A third-party provider shipping wine on behalf of a winery | ||||||
| 17 | shipper's license holder is the agent of the winery shipper's | ||||||
| 18 | license holder and, as such, a winery shipper's license holder | ||||||
| 19 | is responsible for the acts and omissions of the third-party | ||||||
| 20 | provider acting on behalf of the license holder. A third-party | ||||||
| 21 | provider that engages in shipping wine into Illinois on behalf | ||||||
| 22 | of a winery shipper's license holder shall consent to the | ||||||
| 23 | jurisdiction of the State Commission and the State. Any | ||||||
| 24 | third-party holding such an appointment shall, by February 1 of | ||||||
| 25 | each calendar year, file with the State Commission a statement | ||||||
| 26 | detailing each shipment made to an Illinois resident. The State | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | Commission shall adopt rules as soon as practicable to | ||||||
| 2 | implement the requirements of this amendatory Act of the 99th | ||||||
| 3 | General Assembly and shall adopt rules prohibiting any such | ||||||
| 4 | third-party appointment of a third-party provider that has been | ||||||
| 5 | deemed by the State Commission to have violated the provisions | ||||||
| 6 | of this Act with regard to any winery shipper licensee. | ||||||
| 7 | A winery shipper licensee must pay to the Department
of | ||||||
| 8 | Revenue the State liquor gallonage tax under Section 8-1 for
| ||||||
| 9 | all wine that is sold by the licensee and shipped to a person
| ||||||
| 10 | in this State. For the purposes of Section 8-1, a winery
| ||||||
| 11 | shipper licensee shall be taxed in the same manner as a
| ||||||
| 12 | manufacturer of wine. A licensee who is not otherwise required | ||||||
| 13 | to register under the Retailers' Occupation Tax Act must
| ||||||
| 14 | register under the Use Tax Act to collect and remit use tax to
| ||||||
| 15 | the Department of Revenue for all gallons of wine that are sold
| ||||||
| 16 | by the licensee and shipped to persons in this State. If a
| ||||||
| 17 | licensee fails to remit the tax imposed under this Act in
| ||||||
| 18 | accordance with the provisions of Article VIII of this Act, the
| ||||||
| 19 | winery shipper's license shall be revoked in accordance
with | ||||||
| 20 | the provisions of Article VII of this Act. If a licensee
fails | ||||||
| 21 | to properly register and remit tax under the Use Tax Act
or the | ||||||
| 22 | Retailers' Occupation Tax Act for all wine that is sold
by the | ||||||
| 23 | winery shipper and shipped to persons in this
State, the winery | ||||||
| 24 | shipper's license shall be revoked in
accordance with the | ||||||
| 25 | provisions of Article VII of this Act. | ||||||
| 26 | A winery shipper licensee must collect, maintain, and
| ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | submit to the Commission on a semi-annual basis the
total | ||||||
| 2 | number of cases per resident of wine shipped to residents
of | ||||||
| 3 | this State.
A winery shipper licensed under this subsection (r)
| ||||||
| 4 | must comply with the requirements of Section 6-29 of this | ||||||
| 5 | amendatory Act. | ||||||
| 6 | Pursuant to paragraph (5.1) or (5.3) of subsection (a) of | ||||||
| 7 | Section 3-12, the State Commission may receive, respond to, and | ||||||
| 8 | investigate any complaint and impose any of the remedies | ||||||
| 9 | specified in paragraph (1) of subsection (a) of Section 3-12. | ||||||
| 10 | (Source: P.A. 98-394, eff. 8-16-13; 98-401, eff. 8-16-13; | ||||||

| ||||||
| 12 | (235 ILCS 5/6-16) (from Ch. 43, par. 131)
| ||||||
| 13 | Sec. 6-16. Prohibited sales and possession.
| ||||||
| 14 | (a) (i) No licensee nor any officer, associate, member, | ||||||
| 15 | representative,
agent, or employee of such licensee shall sell, | ||||||
| 16 | give, or deliver alcoholic
liquor to any person under the age | ||||||
| 17 | of 21 years or to any intoxicated person,
except as provided in | ||||||
| 18 | Section 6-16.1.
(ii) No express company, common carrier, or | ||||||
| 19 | contract carrier nor any
representative, agent, or employee on | ||||||
| 20 | behalf of an express company, common
carrier, or contract | ||||||
| 21 | carrier that carries or transports alcoholic liquor for
| ||||||
| 22 | delivery within this State shall knowingly give or knowingly | ||||||
| 23 | deliver to a
residential address any shipping container clearly | ||||||
| 24 | labeled as containing
alcoholic liquor and labeled as requiring | ||||||
| 25 | signature of an adult of at least 21
years of age to any person | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | in this State under the age of 21 years. An express
company, | ||||||
| 2 | common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or transports | ||||||
| 3 | such
alcoholic liquor for delivery within this State shall | ||||||
| 4 | obtain a signature at
the time of delivery acknowledging | ||||||
| 5 | receipt of the alcoholic liquor by an adult
who is at least 21 | ||||||
| 6 | years of age. At no time while delivering alcoholic
beverages | ||||||
| 7 | within this State may any representative, agent, or employee of | ||||||
| 8 | an
express company, common carrier, or contract carrier that | ||||||
| 9 | carries or
transports alcoholic liquor for delivery within this | ||||||
| 10 | State deliver the
alcoholic liquor to a residential address | ||||||
| 11 | without the acknowledgment of the
consignee and without first | ||||||
| 12 | obtaining a signature at the time of the delivery
by an adult | ||||||
| 13 | who is at least 21 years of age. A signature of a person on file
| ||||||
| 14 | with the express company, common carrier, or contract carrier | ||||||
| 15 | does
not constitute acknowledgement of the consignee. Any | ||||||
| 16 | express company, common
carrier, or contract carrier that | ||||||
| 17 | transports alcoholic liquor for delivery
within this State that | ||||||
| 18 | violates this
item (ii) of this subsection (a) by delivering | ||||||
| 19 | alcoholic liquor without the
acknowledgement of the consignee | ||||||
| 20 | and without first obtaining a signature at the
time of the | ||||||
| 21 | delivery by an adult who is at least 21 years of age is guilty | ||||||
| 22 | of a
Class A misdemeanor business offense for which the express | ||||||
| 23 | company, common carrier, or contract
carrier that transports | ||||||
| 24 | alcoholic liquor within this State shall be held vicariously | ||||||
| 25 | liable for the actions of its representatives, agents, and | ||||||
| 26 | employees, and the sentence shall include, but shall not be | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | limited to, a fine of not less than $5,000 for a first offense | ||||||
| 2 | and not less than $10,000 for a second or subsequent offense | ||||||
| 3 | shall be fined not
more than $1,001 for a
first offense, not | ||||||
| 4 | more than $5,000 for a second offense, and not more than
| ||||||
| 5 | $10,000 for a third or subsequent offense. An express company, | ||||||
| 6 | common carrier,
or contract carrier shall be held vicariously | ||||||
| 7 | liable for the actions of its
representatives, agents, or | ||||||
| 8 | employees. For purposes of this Act, in addition
to other | ||||||
| 9 | methods authorized by law, an express company, common carrier, | ||||||
| 10 | or
contract carrier shall be considered served with process | ||||||
| 11 | when a
representative, agent, or employee alleged to have | ||||||
| 12 | violated this Act is
personally served. Each shipment of | ||||||
| 13 | alcoholic liquor delivered in violation
of this item (ii) of | ||||||
| 14 | this subsection (a) constitutes a separate offense.
(iii) No | ||||||
| 15 | person, after purchasing or otherwise obtaining alcoholic | ||||||
| 16 | liquor,
shall sell, give, or deliver such alcoholic liquor to | ||||||
| 17 | another person under the
age of 21 years, except in the | ||||||
| 18 | performance of a religious ceremony or service.
Except as | ||||||
| 19 | otherwise provided in item (ii), any express company, common | ||||||
| 20 | carrier,
or contract carrier that transports alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 21 | within this State that
violates the provisions of item (i), | ||||||
| 22 | (ii), or (iii) of this paragraph of this
subsection (a) is | ||||||
| 23 | guilty of a Class A misdemeanor and the sentence shall
include, | ||||||
| 24 | but shall not be limited to, a fine of not less than $500. Any
| ||||||
| 25 | person
who violates the provisions of item (iii) of this | ||||||
| 26 | paragraph of this subsection
(a)
is guilty of a Class A | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | misdemeanor and the sentence shall include, but shall
not be | ||||||
| 2 | limited to a fine of not less than $500 for a first offense and | ||||||
| 3 | not less
than
$2,000 for a second or subsequent offense. Any | ||||||
| 4 | person who knowingly violates
the
provisions of item (iii) of | ||||||
| 5 | this paragraph of this subsection (a) is guilty of
a
Class 4 | ||||||
| 6 | felony if a death occurs as the result of the violation.
| ||||||
| 7 | If a licensee or officer, associate, member, | ||||||
| 8 | representative, agent, or
employee of the licensee, or a | ||||||
| 9 | representative, agent, or employee of an
express company, | ||||||
| 10 | common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
transports | ||||||
| 11 | alcoholic liquor for
delivery within this State, is prosecuted | ||||||
| 12 | under this paragraph of this
subsection
(a) for selling, | ||||||
| 13 | giving, or delivering alcoholic liquor to a person under the
| ||||||
| 14 | age of 21 years, the person under 21 years of age who attempted | ||||||
| 15 | to buy or
receive the alcoholic liquor may be prosecuted | ||||||
| 16 | pursuant to Section 6-20 of this
Act, unless the person under | ||||||
| 17 | 21 years of age was acting under the authority of
a law | ||||||
| 18 | enforcement agency, the Illinois Liquor Control Commission, or | ||||||
| 19 | a local
liquor control commissioner pursuant to a plan or | ||||||
| 20 | action to investigate,
patrol, or conduct any similar | ||||||
| 21 | enforcement action.
| ||||||
| 22 | For the purpose of preventing the violation of this | ||||||
| 23 | Section, any licensee,
or his agent or employee, or a | ||||||
| 24 | representative, agent, or employee of an
express company, | ||||||
| 25 | common carrier, or contract carrier that carries or
transports | ||||||
| 26 | alcoholic liquor for
delivery within this State, shall refuse | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | to sell, deliver, or serve
alcoholic
beverages to any person | ||||||
| 2 | who is unable to produce adequate written evidence of
identity | ||||||
| 3 | and of the fact that he or she is over the age of 21 years, if
| ||||||
| 4 | requested by the licensee, agent, employee, or representative.
| ||||||
| 5 | Adequate written evidence of age and identity of the person | ||||||
| 6 | is a
document issued by a federal, state, county, or municipal | ||||||
| 7 | government, or
subdivision or agency thereof, including, but | ||||||
| 8 | not limited to, a motor
vehicle operator's license, a | ||||||
| 9 | registration certificate issued under the
Federal Selective | ||||||
| 10 | Service Act, or an identification card issued to a
member of | ||||||
| 11 | the Armed Forces. Proof that the defendant-licensee, or his
| ||||||
| 12 | employee or agent, or the representative, agent, or employee of | ||||||
| 13 | the express
company, common carrier, or contract carrier that | ||||||
| 14 | carries or transports
alcoholic liquor for delivery within this | ||||||
| 15 | State demanded, was shown and
reasonably relied upon such
| ||||||
| 16 | written evidence in any transaction forbidden by this Section | ||||||
| 17 | is an
affirmative defense in any criminal prosecution therefor | ||||||
| 18 | or to any
proceedings for the suspension or revocation of any | ||||||
| 19 | license based thereon.
It shall not, however, be an affirmative | ||||||
| 20 | defense if the agent or employee
accepted the written evidence | ||||||
| 21 | knowing it to be false or fraudulent.
If a false or fraudulent | ||||||
| 22 | Illinois driver's license or Illinois
identification card is | ||||||
| 23 | presented by a person less than 21 years of age to a
licensee | ||||||
| 24 | or the licensee's agent or employee for the purpose of | ||||||
| 25 | ordering,
purchasing, attempting to purchase, or otherwise | ||||||
| 26 | obtaining or attempting to
obtain the serving of any alcoholic | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | beverage, the law enforcement officer
or agency investigating | ||||||
| 2 | the incident shall, upon the conviction of the
person who | ||||||
| 3 | presented the fraudulent license or identification, make a
| ||||||
| 4 | report of the matter to the Secretary of State on a form | ||||||
| 5 | provided by the
Secretary of State.
| ||||||
| 6 | However, no agent or employee of the licensee or employee | ||||||
| 7 | of an express
company, common carrier, or contract carrier that | ||||||
| 8 | carries or transports
alcoholic liquor for delivery within this | ||||||
| 9 | State shall be
disciplined or
discharged for selling or | ||||||
| 10 | furnishing liquor to a person under 21 years of
age if the | ||||||
| 11 | agent or employee demanded and was shown, before furnishing
| ||||||
| 12 | liquor to a person under 21 years of age, adequate written | ||||||
| 13 | evidence of age
and identity of the person issued by a federal, | ||||||
| 14 | state, county or municipal
government, or subdivision or agency | ||||||
| 15 | thereof, including but not limited to
a motor vehicle | ||||||
| 16 | operator's license, a registration certificate issued under
| ||||||
| 17 | the Federal Selective Service Act, or an identification card | ||||||
| 18 | issued to a
member of the Armed Forces. This paragraph, | ||||||
| 19 | however, shall not apply if the
agent or employee accepted the | ||||||
| 20 | written evidence knowing it to be false or
fraudulent.
| ||||||
| 21 | Any person who sells, gives, or furnishes to any person | ||||||
| 22 | under the age of

possible, | ||||||
| 18 | any community service shall be performed for an alcohol abuse
| ||||||
| 19 | prevention program.
| ||||||
| 20 | Any person under the age of 21 years who has any alcoholic | ||||||
| 21 | beverage in his
or her possession on any street or highway or | ||||||
| 22 | in any public place or in any
place open to the public is | ||||||
| 23 | guilty of a Class A misdemeanor. This Section does
not apply to | ||||||
| 24 | possession by a person under the age of 21 years making a | ||||||

| ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | (a-1) It is unlawful for any parent or guardian to | ||||||
| 2 | knowingly permit his or her
residence, any other private | ||||||
| 3 | property under his or her control, or any vehicle, conveyance, | ||||||
| 4 | or watercraft under his or her control to be used by an invitee | ||||||
| 5 | of the parent's child or the guardian's

| 6 | under the age of 21, in a manner that constitutes a
violation | ||||||
| 7 | of this Section. A parent or guardian is deemed to have | ||||||
| 8 | knowingly permitted
his or her residence, any other private | ||||||
| 9 | property under his or her control, or any vehicle, conveyance, | ||||||
| 10 | or watercraft under his or her control to be used in violation | ||||||

| 13 | person who violates this subsection (a-1) is guilty of a
Class | ||||||
| 14 | A misdemeanor and the person's sentence shall include, but | ||||||
| 15 | shall not be
limited to, a fine of not less than $500. Where a | ||||||
| 16 | violation of this subsection (a-1) directly or indirectly | ||||||
| 17 | results in great bodily harm or death to any person, the person | ||||||
| 18 | violating this subsection shall be guilty of a Class 4 felony. | ||||||
| 19 | Nothing in this subsection (a-1)
shall be construed to prohibit | ||||||
| 20 | the giving of alcoholic liquor to a person under
the age of 21 | ||||||
| 21 | years in the performance of a religious ceremony or service in | ||||||
| 22 | observation of a religious holiday.
| ||||||
| 23 | For the purposes of this subsection (a-1) where the | ||||||
| 24 | residence or other property has an owner and a tenant or | ||||||
| 25 | lessee, the trier of fact may infer that the residence or other | ||||||
| 26 | property is occupied only by the tenant or lessee. | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | (b) Except as otherwise provided in this Section whoever | ||||||
| 2 | violates
this Section shall, in addition to other penalties | ||||||
| 3 | provided for in this
Act, be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
| ||||||
| 4 | (c) Any person shall be guilty of a Class A misdemeanor | ||||||
| 5 | where he or she
knowingly authorizes or permits a residence | ||||||
| 6 | which he or she occupies to be used by an invitee under 21
| ||||||
| 7 | years of age and:
| ||||||
| 8 | (1) the person occupying the residence knows that any | ||||||
| 9 | such person under
the age of 21 is in possession of or is | ||||||
| 10 | consuming any alcoholic
beverage; and
| ||||||
| 11 | (2) the possession or consumption of the alcohol by the | ||||||
| 12 | person under
21 is not otherwise permitted by this Act.
| ||||||
| 13 | For the purposes of this subsection (c) where the residence | ||||||
| 14 | has an owner
and a tenant or lessee, the trier of fact may | ||||||
| 15 | infer that the residence
is occupied only by the tenant or | ||||||
| 16 | lessee. The sentence of any person who violates this subsection | ||||||
| 17 | (c) shall include, but shall not be limited to, a fine of not | ||||||
| 18 | less than $500. Where a violation of this subsection (c) | ||||||
| 19 | directly or indirectly results in great bodily harm or death to | ||||||
| 20 | any person, the person violating this subsection (c) shall be | ||||||
| 21 | guilty of a Class 4 felony. Nothing in this subsection (c) | ||||||
| 22 | shall be construed to prohibit the giving of alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 23 | to a person under the age of 21 years in the performance of a | ||||||
| 24 | religious ceremony or service in observation of a religious | ||||||
| 25 | holiday. | ||||||
| 26 | A person shall not be in violation of this subsection (c) | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | if (A) he or she requests assistance from the police department | ||||||
| 2 | or other law enforcement agency to either (i) remove any person | ||||||
| 3 | who refuses to abide by the person's performance of the duties | ||||||
| 4 | imposed by this subsection (c) or (ii) terminate the activity | ||||||
| 5 | because the person has been unable to prevent a person under | ||||||
| 6 | the age of 21 years from consuming alcohol despite having taken | ||||||
| 7 | all reasonable steps to do so and (B) this assistance is | ||||||
| 8 | requested before any other person makes a formal complaint to | ||||||
| 9 | the police department or other law enforcement agency about the | ||||||
| 10 | activity. | ||||||
| 11 | (d) Any person who rents a hotel or motel room from the | ||||||
| 12 | proprietor or agent
thereof for the purpose of or with the | ||||||
| 13 | knowledge that such room shall be
used for the consumption of | ||||||
| 14 | alcoholic liquor by persons under the age of 21
years shall be | ||||||
| 15 | guilty of a Class A misdemeanor.
| ||||||
| 16 | (e) Except as otherwise provided in this Act, any person | ||||||
| 17 | who has alcoholic
liquor in his or her possession on public | ||||||
| 18 | school district property on school
days or at events on public | ||||||
| 19 | school district property when children are present
is guilty of | ||||||
| 20 | a petty offense, unless the alcoholic liquor (i) is in the
| ||||||
| 21 | original container with the seal unbroken and is in the | ||||||
| 22 | possession of a person
who is not otherwise legally prohibited | ||||||
| 23 | from possessing the alcoholic liquor or
(ii) is in the | ||||||
| 24 | possession of a person in or for the performance of a religious
| ||||||
| 25 | service or ceremony authorized by the school board.

| 1 | (235 ILCS 5/6-29.1)
| ||||||
| 2 | Sec. 6-29.1. Direct shipments of alcoholic liquor. | ||||||
| 3 | (a) The General Assembly makes the following findings: | ||||||
| 4 | (1) The General Assembly of Illinois, having reviewed
| ||||||
| 5 | this Act in light of the United
States Supreme Court's 2005 | ||||||
| 6 | decision in Granholm v. Heald,
has determined to conform | ||||||
| 7 | that law to the constitutional
principles enunciated by the | ||||||
| 8 | Court in a manner that best
preserves the temperance, | ||||||
| 9 | revenue, and orderly
distribution values of this Act. | ||||||
| 10 | (2) Minimizing automobile accidents and fatalities,
| ||||||
| 11 | domestic violence, health problems, loss of productivity,
| ||||||
| 12 | unemployment, and other social problems associated with
| ||||||
| 13 | dependency and improvident use of alcoholic beverages
| ||||||
| 14 | remains the policy of Illinois. | ||||||
| 15 | (3) To the maximum extent constitutionally feasible,
| ||||||
| 16 | Illinois desires to collect sufficient revenue from excise
| ||||||
| 17 | and use taxes on alcoholic beverages for the purpose of
| ||||||
| 18 | responding to such social problems. | ||||||
| 19 | (4) Combined with family education and individual
| ||||||
| 20 | discipline, retail validation of age, and assessment of the
| ||||||
| 21 | capacity of the consumer remains the best pre-sale social
| ||||||
| 22 | protection against the problems associated with the abuse
| ||||||
| 23 | of alcoholic liquor. | ||||||
| 24 | (5) Therefore, the paramount purpose of this | ||||||
| 25 | amendatory Act is to
continue to carefully limit direct | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | shipment sales of wine produced by makers of wine
and to | ||||||
| 2 | continue to prohibit such direct shipment sales for
spirits | ||||||
| 3 | and beer. | ||||||
| 4 | For these reasons, the Commission shall establish
a system | ||||||
| 5 | to notify the out-of-state trade of this prohibition
and to | ||||||
| 6 | detect violations. The Commission shall request
the Attorney | ||||||
| 7 | General to extradite any offender.
| ||||||
| 8 | (b) Pursuant to the
Twenty-First Amendment of the United | ||||||
| 9 | States Constitution allowing states to
regulate the | ||||||
| 10 | distribution and sale of alcoholic liquor and pursuant to the
| ||||||
| 11 | federal Webb-Kenyon Act declaring that alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 12 | shipped in interstate
commerce must comply with state laws, the | ||||||
| 13 | General Assembly hereby finds and
declares that selling | ||||||
| 14 | alcoholic liquor from a point outside this State
through | ||||||
| 15 | various direct marketing means, such as catalogs,
newspapers, | ||||||
| 16 | mailers, and the Internet,
directly to residents of this State | ||||||
| 17 | poses a serious threat
to the State's efforts to prevent youths | ||||||
| 18 | from accessing alcoholic liquor;
to State revenue collections; | ||||||
| 19 | and to the economy of this State.
| ||||||
| 20 | Any person manufacturing, distributing, or selling
| ||||||
| 21 | alcoholic liquor who knowingly ships or transports or causes | ||||||
| 22 | the shipping or
transportation of any alcoholic liquor from a | ||||||
| 23 | point outside this State to a
person in this State who does not | ||||||
| 24 | hold a manufacturer's, distributor's,
importing distributor's, | ||||||
| 25 | or non-resident dealer's license issued by the Liquor
Control | ||||||
| 26 | Commission, other than a shipment of sacramental wine to a bona | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | fide
religious organization, a shipment authorized by Section | ||||||
| 2 | 6-29, subparagraph (17) of Section 3-12, or any other
shipment | ||||||
| 3 | authorized by this Act, is in violation of this Act.
| ||||||
| 4 | The Commission, upon determining, after investigation, | ||||||
| 5 | that a person
has violated this Section, shall give notice to | ||||||
| 6 | the person by certified mail to
cease and desist all shipments | ||||||
| 7 | of
alcoholic liquor into this State and to withdraw from this | ||||||
| 8 | State within 5
working days after receipt of the notice all | ||||||
| 9 | shipments of alcoholic liquor then
in transit. A person who | ||||||
| 10 | violates the cease and desist notice is subject to the | ||||||
| 11 | applicable penalties in subsection (a) of Section 10-1 of this | ||||||
| 12 | Act.
| ||||||
| 13 | Whenever the Commission has reason to believe that a person
| ||||||
| 14 | has failed to comply with the Commission notice under this | ||||||
| 15 | Section, it shall
notify the Department of Revenue and file a | ||||||
| 16 | complaint with the State's Attorney
of the county where the | ||||||
| 17 | alcoholic liquor was delivered or with appropriate
law | ||||||
| 18 | enforcement officials.
| ||||||
| 19 | Failure to comply with the notice issued by the Commission | ||||||
| 20 | under this Section
constitutes a
business offense for which the | ||||||
| 21 | person shall be fined not more than $1,000 for
a first offense, | ||||||
| 22 | not more than $5,000 for a second offense, and not more than
| ||||||
| 23 | $10,000 for a third or
subsequent offense. Each shipment of | ||||||
| 24 | alcoholic liquor delivered in
violation of the cease and desist | ||||||
| 25 | notice shall constitute a separate offense.

| 3 | threat
to the sound and careful control, regulation, and | ||||||
| 4 | taxation of the
manufacture, sale, and distribution of | ||||||
| 5 | alcoholic liquors exists by virtue
of individuals who | ||||||
| 6 | manufacture,
import, distribute, or sell alcoholic liquors | ||||||
| 7 | within the State without
having first obtained a valid license | ||||||
| 8 | to do so, and whereas such threat is
especially serious along | ||||||
| 9 | the borders of this State, and whereas such threat
requires | ||||||
| 10 | immediate correction by this Act, by active investigation and
| ||||||
| 11 | prosecution by law enforcement officials and prosecutors, and | ||||||
| 12 | by prompt and
strict enforcement through the courts of this | ||||||
| 13 | State to punish violators and
to deter such conduct in the | ||||||
| 14 | future:

| 18 | wine, 45 liters (11.88 gallons) or more of distilled spirits, | ||||||
| 19 | or 118 liters (31.17 gallons) or more of beer alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 20 | at any
place within the State without having first obtained a | ||||||
| 21 | valid license to do
so under the provisions of this Act shall | ||||||
| 22 | be guilty of a business offense
and fined not more than $1,000 | ||||||
| 23 | for the first such offense and shall be
guilty of a Class 4 | ||||||
| 24 | felony for each subsequent offense.
| ||||||
| 25 | Any person who manufactures, imports for distribution, | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | transports from outside this State into this State for sale or | ||||||
| 2 | resale in this State, or distributes or sells less than 108 | ||||||
| 3 | liters (28.53 gallons) of wine, less than 45 liters (11.88 | ||||||
| 4 | gallons) of distilled spirits, or less than 118 liters (31.17 | ||||||
| 5 | gallons) of beer at any place within the State without having | ||||||
| 6 | first obtained a valid license to do so under the provisions of | ||||||
| 7 | this Act shall be guilty of a business offense and fined not | ||||||
| 8 | more than $1,000 for the first such offense and shall be guilty | ||||||
| 9 | of a Class 4 felony for each subsequent offense. This | ||||||
| 10 | subsection does not apply to a motor carrier or freight | ||||||
| 11 | forwarder, as defined in Section 13102 of Title 49 of the | ||||||
| 12 | United States Code, or an air carrier, as defined in Section | ||||||
| 13 | 40102 of Title 49 of the United States Code. | ||||||
| 14 | Any person who both has been issued an initial cease and | ||||||
| 15 | desist notice from the State Commission and for compensation | ||||||
| 16 | ships alcoholic liquor into this State without a license | ||||||
| 17 | authorized by Section 5-1 issued by the State Commission or in | ||||||
| 18 | violation of that license is guilty of a Class 4 felony for | ||||||
| 19 | each offense. | ||||||
| 20 | (b) (1) Any retailer, licensed in this State, who knowingly | ||||||
| 21 | causes to
furnish,
give, sell, or otherwise being within the | ||||||
| 22 | State, any alcoholic liquor destined
to be used, distributed, | ||||||
| 23 | consumed or sold in another state, unless such
alcoholic liquor | ||||||
| 24 | was received in this State by a duly licensed distributor,
or | ||||||
| 25 | importing distributors shall have his license suspended for 7 | ||||||
| 26 | days for
the first offense and for the second offense, shall | ||||||
| |||||||
| |||||||
| 1 | have his license
revoked by the Commission.
| ||||||
| 2 | (2) In the event the Commission receives a certified copy | ||||||
| 3 | of a final order
from a foreign jurisdiction that an Illinois | ||||||
| 4 | retail licensee has been found to
have violated that foreign | ||||||
| 5 | jurisdiction's laws, rules, or regulations
concerning the | ||||||
| 6 | importation of alcoholic liquor into that foreign | ||||||
| 7 | jurisdiction,
the violation may be grounds for the Commission | ||||||
| 8 | to revoke, suspend, or refuse
to
issue or renew a license, to | ||||||
| 9 | impose a fine, or to take any additional action
provided by | ||||||
| 10 | this Act with respect to the Illinois retail license or | ||||||
| 11 | licensee.

force and effect, and from which no appeal | ||||||
| 20 | can be taken.
| ||||||
| 21 | (c) Any person who shall make any false statement or | ||||||
| 22 | otherwise

| 23 | obtaining any license
hereunder, or who having obtained a | ||||||
| 24 | license hereunder shall violate any
