§ 9:1015. Violations and remedies non-exclusive, criminal penalties for violations.

The violations listed in sections 9:1013 and 9:1014 are not exclusive, and violation of other local ordinances, state laws, or federal laws may result in administrative licensing or permit action.

The violations listed in sections 9:1013 and 9:1014 may be brought as administrative matters, or may be charged as misdemeanors as provided in this chapter, or both. A finding of fault or guilt in either an administrative or criminal proceeding does not create double jeopardy for purposes of parallel criminal and administrative proceedings.

In addition to action taken by the ABC board in suspending, revoking or denying any license, permit or application covered by this chapter, except subsection 9:1014(8), any person convicted, in a court of proper jurisdiction, of violating any provisions of this chapter shall be punished by a fine of five hundred dollars ($500.00) or imprisonment for not more than six (6) months, or both, and each day's violation shall constitute a separate offense.
