Question: A restaurant's liquor license specifies its permitted hours of alcohol service until 1:00 AM. A server continues to serve drinks to patrons at 1:15 AM because the bar is still busy. What immediate consequence could the establishment face?
Answer options:
- A warning from the AGCO for a minor infraction. ✅ Temporary suspension of their liquor license.
- A referral to the local health board for unsanitary practices.
- Increased scrutiny during their next license renewal application.
Correct answer: Temporary suspension of their liquor license.
Explanation: Operating outside of licensed hours is a serious violation of the LLCA. Continuing to serve alcohol past the permitted time can lead to immediate and significant penalties, including a temporary suspension of the liquor license. While other consequences might happen, temporary suspension is a strong immediate consequence for this type of breach. Options A and D are too lenient, and C is unrelated.
