In re the Petition of Merrihew
Opinion of the Court
We think the county judge obtained jurisdiction to make the order, and that he properly overruled the appellant’s preliminary objections.
We are also of opinion that the affidavits show that the appellant was in effect peddling lager beer and whisky in the town of Olive,. which had voted no license, and that upon the merits the order should be sustained.
The in junction order is too broad, however, and might be construed to prohibit the appellant from selling to any person who resided in the town of Olive any intoxicating liquors at his place of business in the city of Kingston and delivering the same to such person. What subdivision K of section 30 of the Liquor Tax Law (Consol. Laws, chap. 34 [Laws of 1909, chap. 39], as amd. by Laws of 1910,
The injunction order should be modified by inserting after the words “soliciting, procuring or accepting,” the words “in the town of Olive, Ulster county, E. Y.,” and as so modified affirmed, without costs.
All concurred.
Order modified by inserting after the words “ soliciting, procuring or accepting,” the words “ in the town of Olive, Ulster county, E. Y.,” and as so modified affirmed, without costs.
