Description
On January 17, 1956, the Illinois Liquor Control Commission (hereinafter referred to as the State Commission) defendant-appellee
herein, in an original proceeding by them initiated, revoked and thereafter seized the retailer's liquor license theretofore
issued to and held by the plaintiff-appellant. He thereupon filed a complaint in the circuit court of Cook County under the
Administrative Review Act in which he prayed that the order of the State Commission be stayed until the final disposition
of his complaint; that it be ordered to return the liquor license to him and that the final order revoking his license be
reversed. Defendants appeared by the Attorney General and moved the court to dismiss the complaint upon the ground that certain
amendments to the Liquor Control Act of Illinois, passed by the legislature in 1955, invested the State Commission with original
jurisdiction to institute proceedings before itself on its own initiative for the revocation of a retailer's liquor license.
Upon a hearing this motion was overruled and an order was entered by the circuit court reversing the order of revocation theretofore
entered by the State Commission. On appeal to the Appellate Court the order of the circuit court was reversed. (12 Ill. App.2d
170.) The case is here on leave to appeal granted by the Appellate Court pursuant to the provisions of section 75(2)(a) of
the Civil Practice Act, (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1955, chap. 110, par. 75(2)(a),) which court certified that this cause involves questions
of law of such importance as requires our passing upon them. The determination of this suit depends upon the interpretation to be given certain parts of sections 108, 109 and 150 as
amended in 1955 of the Illinois Liquor Control Act. Ill. Rev. Stat. 1955, chap. 43, pars. 108, 109 and 150.
