Stat . Section 340A. 410, subd. S ( 1986 ) and St . P ul Legislative Code, Section 409. 08(6 ) ; and, if so, whether h Respondent ' s liquor license should be revoked, subject to fine , r suspended; and if suspended, for what period of time. Based upon all the pr ce dings herein, the Administrative Law Judge makes the follow'ng ! . -� � - FINDI GS OF FACT 1 . Michael K. 0'Too1e i t e principal shareholder and officer of 859 Randolph Corpor t ' on, doing business as The Spot Bar. The corporation operates a ar and restaurant establish- ment at the address described n its corporate name in St . Paul , Minnesota. On December 19, 19 8 the date of the incident in question, the Spot Bar had On a e Liquor-C, Sunday Liquor, Off Sa1e Malt beverage and Restaur n (B) licenses from the City of St . Paul . The current licenses re due to expire on January 31 , 1990. 2 . On December 19, 198 a about 1 : 30 p.m. Sgt . Richard Klein of the vice unit of the St Paul Police Department stopped at the Spot Bar. He observed th t there were approximately eight persons congregated at he north end of th� bar. Money and playing cards were presen o the bar where �hese persons were located. These persons nd a female barter�der were playing cards . Money was being bet a d t the end of ea�ch hand, the apparent winner would collect t e money. Sgt . Klein watched four hands played, all in the same m ner. He was not able to identify the particular card game whic as being played. Sgt . Klein, who was dressed in civilian attir , did not identify himself as a police officer during the tim e was present in the bar. 3 . Sgt . Klein' s visit o the Spot Bar was not the result of a tip or complaint . It was random stop while he was making premises checks in that part f the city. , 4. In addition to the fe ale bartender_ �ho was partici- pating in the card game , an ld r, male bartend�r was also present on the premises . Mi ha 1 K. 0'Toole wa� not present during the incident in quest on i � � 5. The older, male har e der was acting as manager at the time of the incident in ques i . He is an exp rienced employee and was aware that gambling as taking place. he female bar- tender had been employed for a proximately six onths at the time of the incident in ques i . � 6. Prior to the incid n in question, Mi�chael K. 0'Toole had instructed that his empl y es not to permit gambling or other illegal activities on the pr m ses . He has barred patrons who have attempted to break the a or who were troublemakers from the premises . He spoke wit t e employees following the incident and re-emphasized that viol ti ns of law will not be tolerated: 7. There is no evide ce that Mr. 0'Toole or any employee of the bar received any mon y s a result of the gambling going on at the premises . There ' s o evidence of any aggravating circumstances . Based on the foregoing Fi dings of Fact, the Administrative Law Judge makes the followi g : � t .,. .a , •. �P�— //� ;�. CO C USIONS 1 . The St . Paul City o ncil and the Administrative Law Judge have jurisdiction in t i matter pursuan� to Minn. Stat. Sections 14. �0 and 340A.415 ( 1 86 ) and St. Paul Legislative. Code Sections 310.0� and .06 . 2 . The City of St. Pa 1 has fulfilled aIl relevant sub- stantive and procedural req ir ments of law and rule. 3. The Spot Bar is lice sed by the City of St . Paul to sell intoxicating liquors a ' i s establishment and is , therefore , required to comply with the pr visions of Minn, Stat . Section 340A.415 regarding liquor s le licensure, Minrh. Stat� Section 340A.410, subd. S relating o ambling activit�es , - and St . Paul Legislative Code Section 40 .0 ( 6 ) relating to gambling activities . 4. The City of St. P ul has proved by a ' preponderance of the evidence that Responden p rmitted unlawful gambling activities at The Spot Bar on December 19 1988 in violation of Minn. Stat . Section 340A.410, subd. 5 a d he St. Paul Legislative Code Sec- tion 409.08(6 ) . As a resul o the violations of Minnesota statutes and the St . Paul L gi lative Code, disciplinary action is warranted. Based upon the foregoi g onclusion, the Administrative Law Judge makes the following: RE OM ENDATION IT IS RESPFCTFULLY REC M NDED that the St . Paul City Council suspend the On Sa1e Li uor-C, Sunday L' quor, Off Sale Malt beverage and Restauran (B) licenses of Ri�hard K. 0'Toole , 859 Randolph Corporation, d b/ The Spot Bar f�r a period not exceeding three working day . �; ,, Dated: May 2, 1989 2f/. RA K . E IN Administrat�ve Law Judge TICE Pursuant to Minn. Stat ection 14. 62, subd. 1 , the agency is required to serve its fi a decision upon each party and upon the Administrative Law J dge by first class mail . Reported: Taped. One Cass t e. 3- t ; . . a�.� ,. . � i��:�y MEM NDUM City' s Exhibit 6 indicat s that three-day suspensions have been imposed by the Council i omewhat similar cases involving Awada ' s Bar, Dahir' s Bar, Gab s By the Park, Ricci ' s Lounge, and Wallace ' s West Side Bar. The case of Easy Street e t Bar, (one-day ;suspension) , involved a charitable gamblin iolation, which 'the Council may have regarded as somewhat of echnical violation. The cases of the Arcade Bar, ( 11-day su p nsion) , and Grand Central , ( six- day suspension) , involved hea y gambling, participation by management, a variety of diff r nt forms of gambling, sophisti- cated and organized planning, ' o other aggravat�.ng circumstances . The circumstances involving Y n arelly' s Bar, (tiwo-day suspension) , were not presented to the ALJ. i Although �there are no ag r vating circumst�nces present , neither do there seem to be a y particularly mitigating circum- stances other than the fact t a Michael K. 0'Toole seemed genuinely concerned about the p esence of gambling on the premises . In view of all the cire s ances , a three-day suspension is fair and is consistent with i r disciplinary action. .W L.�.� I I I i , i I i � � -4 .,,, ,.., - :�'- :�''`.,;�� s�.,v, 3����T• �.l,, ��� CITY OF SAINT PAUL a; �?, -- OFFICE OF 7HE CITY ATTORNEY =;,m ������������ „ r 1O1 1°° ::> EDWARD P.

Byrne , A sistant City Attprney for the City of Saint Paul . My na e is Frank Levin. I am the Administrative Law Judge o�f he Minnesota Off�ce of , Administrative Hearing . I w uld appreciate i�t if we could '� begin with the City and t at you note your appearances and then (unintelligible) right here . � Philip B. Byrne: Th nk you, your honor � My name is Philip Byrne, B-Y-R-N-E, ssistant City Atto�ney . I represent the City Licens ivision in this matter , and with me this morning is Sergea t Rick Klein, K-L-E-I-N, a sergeant with the St . Pau olice Vice Unit, and he will be the only witness we have t this matter . I Terrance S . 0'Toole: am Terrance S. 0 'Toole . I represent the Spot Bar . I m accompanied by the president of the corporation that un the Spot Bar , Michael 0'Toole. I Whether or not I am goin t call any witnesses , a witness or witnesses , depends on w t I hear . i I (exchan e between J d e Levin and Mr. 0 'Toole) And I don't know whether the n t re of the corporate entity is important - - but I mig ay in the exhibits that the City Attorney is go 'ng to have to intro�duce the corporate inspector' s c rd with this corporate record on it and I think Mr . Michael 0 ' oole is an officer employee who. Judqe Levin: Than y u very much. � Terrance S . 0'Tool : And I might say that I have no objection to the City ' s E hibits 1 through; 7 . Judge Levin: Tha k ou, Mr . 0'Toole, and let me again apologize to everyone or the delay in commencing. I simply forgot to pick up the ap recorder . All right , Mr . By ne , can you, uh, dq you think it might be helpful to ha e ome sort of a b�ief opening statement, or do you j s want to go aheac� and begin with the testimony of Serge n Klein: Mr . B rne: I ' ll 'u t ive a brief overview and then Y ) J what I 'll do first, y ur honor, is to introduce the � exhibits , and I appre ia e Mr . 0 'Toole' s courtesy in that regard . This matter ho ld be a fairly simple matter . The charge involves a mat er of an allegatio� of gambling in an on-sale liquor licens e tablishment . One witness observes that he went into the b r, saw what he saw, and will relate I j 1 I , officer is Michael K. 0'Tool , ho is here in the room today. These cards show tha v lid through Janu,ary of 1990, the Spot Bar has an on-sale iq or license, Sunday on-sale liquor license, an off-sale al license, and a ;restaurant license . City' s Exhibit 5 is a c py of Sergeant Klein' s report. City' s Exhibit 6 is som t ing that the paralegal in our office has prepared for use y the administrative law judge and for Mr . 0'Toole ' s use, i d' cating what the Council has done in similar cases in the p st. Granted there may be factual differences , and I u d hope to , if I can, to the extent after the evidence i r ceived , I would be glad to speak of each of these and al about the factual differences that I am aware of I do know that the Council may have recollections of w at they have done in the past , so this at least will be of so e use for the parties . Finally, City' s Exhibi 7 is five pages of Minnesota Statutes, the first one bei g innesota Statutes 340A.415, which is the provision whic quires us, if we are going to do a license revocation or u ension or proceed against a license to do it through pr c dures for a hearing under the Administrative Procedure Ac , and the City of course has gone beyond that and provid d for the full panpply of protections, using administ a ive law judges . Attached to it are just the statutes , a ter 14 of the Mi�nesota Statutes , relating to cont st d case procedure�s . I introduce that only becaus t ere was at least' a thought earlier in my mind that th re might be a question raised as to whether or not this was th proper forum and proper procedures were being used b t I think it 's clear to me at least that the City is fol ow'ng maybe 110% of the procedural requirements th t xist . And with that I 'd be r pared to call Sergeant Rlein. Judge Levin: (uni t lligible) Sergeant Klein was t n sworn by the Administrative Law Judge . EXAMINATION of Serge nt Klein: By Mr .
