Judge Allows Short Term Licenses Under Bishop Act
Judge Foster rules licenses may be issued for periods shorter than one year under the Bishop’s act. Previously many believed licenses must run a full year, causing confusion among hotel men and others. Going forward licenses will specify the exact term, preventing mistaken expectations and guiding future rejections when applications fail to meet the period.
