A lawsuit filed by Crisham & Holman clients ApplejackWine & Spirits LLC, Heritage Wines & More LLC, and Bevy's Liquor World has garnered attention from Colorado and national press outlets in recent days.
Law360: "Three Colorado liquor store chains are suing state regulators for allegedly allowing investors in big-box retailers and grocery stores to ignore limits on liquor licenses while 'exerting significant pressure' on liquor retailers, according to a complaint accusing the state of unfair enforcement."
Denver Gazette: "Four independent Colorado liquor stores have sued the state, claiming that limits on the ownership of certain licenses aren't being uniformly enforced and are unfairly — and illegally — benefitting those with hidden interests."
Denver Post: "The lawsuit filed late last week in Denver District Court targets “liquor-licensed drugstores,” such as King Soopers grocery stores, Costco, Walmart and Target. The lawsuit claims the state Liquor Enforcement Division isn’t following a state law that restricts the owners of businesses with pharmacies to eight liquor licenses."
