A family-owned pizzeria and winery that won a court battle with the Tennessee Alcohol and Beverage Commission is getting the attention of lawmakers statewide.Despicable, illegal, deceitful, and pure trickery. These are the words a judge and lawmakers are using to describe the ABC’s tactics.
“The state of Tennessee courts came back and said, 'Hey, you were right. They did commit fraud. But we’re not going to pay you back.' So they come in to perpetrate fraud. I have to defend myself If I lose. I paid their fees and mine. If I win. I have to pay my fees so they can go into any business. Decide let’s go mess with this guy. So, oh, you don’t want to pay the extortion fine of $5,000. Then guess what? Take us to court,” said Chuck Bordogna, co-owner of Lookout Winery.
“The prosecutor should have never brought the case, because if she had done her job and looked at the statute, which says the young man has to ask for the booze and pay for it, did she even ask them that question?” said Bordogna. The ABC told us after our first story that it would use this incident to “provide additional training”We are not alone in asking these questions.
