Hearing Opens on Appeal Over Beer License Showdown
The 108th District Court opened a hearing to appeal a Potter County decision denying a beer license for Gray's Inn at 1107 Grand. Neighbors testified licensee operations under prior management were unordered, with patrons using sidewalks for restroom needs. The dispute traces back to Willard Innes and The Pig, and now Gray's Inn seeks transfer and renewal amid protests.
