Though the licensee concedes that liquor liability insuranoe was not in force and effect from November 1, 1997, through December 3, 1997, the licensee believes the violation was neither intentional nor will£ul, nor even negligent, and asks that the City Council take the following facts into consideration in determining what sanction, if any, to apply: 1. The licensee was originally granted the licenses in question in late November, 1995. 2. The original certificat� - of insurance--(Exhibit.-.A);--=- --.- appended hereto, showed that all selevant insurance coverages, including liquor liability insurance were effective November 30, 1995, through November 30, 1996. _ _.. 3. Sometime thereafter, a City representative, apparently from LIEP, called the insurance agent £or the licensee, Christopher Skelton, and informed him that the coverage dates needed to be changed so that coverage tarminated on November 1, 1996. The licenses was not directly informed of this change by either the City or the agent. The agent made the change requested by the LIEY and issued a new certificate. The agent' s recollection of this event is included in a letter dated February 23, 1998 {Exhibit B). 4. As stated above, the licensee had no direct knowledge of the change and did not receive actual notifiCation of the new u�� Saint Paul City Council May 13, 1998 Page Two �� expiration date until being informed on December 4, 1997, over two years later that the coverage had lapsed. 5. The licensee, like many licensees in the City £inances its insurance pac3sage. This particular licensee used Capitol Indemnity Corporation. The enclosed notice (Exhibit C) covering the financing £or the current year, indicates an expiration date of the insurance coverages of Deaember 28, 1997. The licensee received the notice dated April 29, 1997, assumed it covered all insurance coverages £inanced, including liquor liability insurance, and had no actual knowledge of an earlier expiration date until December 4, 1997. 6. Upon notice that the coverage had in fact lapsed, the licensee and the insurance agent acted immediately to procure and bind coverage, evidence of which is attached hereto {Exhibit D) and whioh became e££ective immediately. 7. The licensee has . not been notified of. any cl"aim _:`� �'p-`=' attributable to the lapse period and in fact believes no actual or potential claim to exist. In summary, the licensee submits that any violation was inadvertent, unintentional and certainly not willful. Nv damage has been done to any party and the actions or inaations of the licensee are at most a technical violation of the ordinance. Ve truly y� s, S.

All originai documentation indicated an originai start date for coverage to be effective 1 i- 30-95 effective until 11-30-96. The original policy was bound indicating these effective and expiration dates. Upon a certificate of liquor liability insnrance being issuerl to the City of St. Paul I had received a phone cail from licensing indieating that the coverage dates had to be changed to show an exgirarion date of 11-1-96 with a new policy period thereafter to be 11-1 — 11-1 annually. Attached is the originat deolarations from ttie insurance carriez who provided the caverage 1 i-30-95 to expiration and a revised cenificate showing che requested new eacpiration date of 11-1-96. It is my opinion tl�at the insured was under the unpression that the 11-30 date was to be t3ie annual expiration and renewal dates from day 1 as this is when the ariginal dates were according to the ori�nal policy.

Though the licensee concedes that liquor liability insuranoe was not in force and effect from November 1, 1997, through December 3, 1997, the licensee believes the violation was neither intentional nor will£ul, nor even negligent, and asks that the City Council take the following facts into consideration in determining what sanction, if any, to apply: 1. The licensee was originally granted the licenses in question in late November, 1995. 2. The original certificat� - of insurance--(Exhibit.-.A);--=- --.- appended hereto, showed that all selevant insurance coverages, including liquor liability insurance were effective November 30, 1995, through November 30, 1996. _ _.. 3. Sometime thereafter, a City representative, apparently from LIEP, called the insurance agent £or the licensee, Christopher Skelton, and informed him that the coverage dates needed to be changed so that coverage tarminated on November 1, 1996. The licenses was not directly informed of this change by either the City or the agent. The agent made the change requested by the LIEY and issued a new certificate. The agent' s recollection of this event is included in a letter dated February 23, 1998 {Exhibit B). 4. As stated above, the licensee had no direct knowledge of the change and did not receive actual notifiCation of the new u�� Saint Paul City Council May 13, 1998 Page Two �� expiration date until being informed on December 4, 1997, over two years later that the coverage had lapsed. 5. The licensee, like many licensees in the City £inances its insurance pac3sage. This particular licensee used Capitol Indemnity Corporation. The enclosed notice (Exhibit C) covering the financing £or the current year, indicates an expiration date of the insurance coverages of Deaember 28, 1997. The licensee received the notice dated April 29, 1997, assumed it covered all insurance coverages £inanced, including liquor liability insurance, and had no actual knowledge of an earlier expiration date until December 4, 1997. 6. Upon notice that the coverage had in fact lapsed, the licensee and the insurance agent acted immediately to procure and bind coverage, evidence of which is attached hereto {Exhibit D) and whioh became e££ective immediately. 7. The licensee has . not been notified of. any cl"aim _:`� �'p-`=' attributable to the lapse period and in fact believes no actual or potential claim to exist. In summary, the licensee submits that any violation was inadvertent, unintentional and certainly not willful. Nv damage has been done to any party and the actions or inaations of the licensee are at most a technical violation of the ordinance. Ve truly y� s, S.

All originai documentation indicated an originai start date for coverage to be effective 1 i- 30-95 effective until 11-30-96. The original policy was bound indicating these effective and expiration dates. Upon a certificate of liquor liability insnrance being issuerl to the City of St. Paul I had received a phone cail from licensing indieating that the coverage dates had to be changed to show an exgirarion date of 11-1-96 with a new policy period thereafter to be 11-1 — 11-1 annually. Attached is the originat deolarations from ttie insurance carriez who provided the caverage 1 i-30-95 to expiration and a revised cenificate showing che requested new eacpiration date of 11-1-96.

Though the licensee concedes that liquor liability insuranoe was not in force and effect from November 1, 1997, through December 3, 1997, the licensee believes the violation was neither intentional nor will£ul, nor even negligent, and asks that the City Council take the following facts into consideration in determining what sanction, if any, to apply: 1. The licensee was originally granted the licenses in question in late November, 1995. 2. The original certificat� - of insurance--(Exhibit.-.A);--=- --.- appended hereto, showed that all selevant insurance coverages, including liquor liability insurance were effective November 30, 1995, through November 30, 1996. _ _.. 3. Sometime thereafter, a City representative, apparently from LIEP, called the insurance agent £or the licensee, Christopher Skelton, and informed him that the coverage dates needed to be changed so that coverage tarminated on November 1, 1996. The licenses was not directly informed of this change by either the City or the agent. The agent made the change requested by the LIEY and issued a new certificate. The agent' s recollection of this event is included in a letter dated February 23, 1998 {Exhibit B). 4. As stated above, the licensee had no direct knowledge of the change and did not receive actual notifiCation of the new u�� Saint Paul City Council May 13, 1998 Page Two �� expiration date until being informed on December 4, 1997, over two years later that the coverage had lapsed. 5. The licensee, like many licensees in the City £inances its insurance pac3sage. This particular licensee used Capitol Indemnity Corporation. The enclosed notice (Exhibit C) covering the financing £or the current year, indicates an expiration date of the insurance coverages of Deaember 28, 1997. The licensee received the notice dated April 29, 1997, assumed it covered all insurance coverages £inanced, including liquor liability insurance, and had no actual knowledge of an earlier expiration date until December 4, 1997. 6. Upon notice that the coverage had in fact lapsed, the licensee and the insurance agent acted immediately to procure and bind coverage, evidence of which is attached hereto {Exhibit D) and whioh became e££ective immediately. 7. The licensee has . not been notified of. any cl"aim _:`� �'p-`=' attributable to the lapse period and in fact believes no actual or potential claim to exist. In summary, the licensee submits that any violation was inadvertent, unintentional and certainly not willful. Nv damage has been done to any party and the actions or inaations of the licensee are at most a technical violation of the ordinance. Ve truly y� s, S.

All originai documentation indicated an originai start date for coverage to be effective 1 i- 30-95 effective until 11-30-96. The original policy was bound indicating these effective and expiration dates. Upon a certificate of liquor liability insnrance being issuerl to the City of St. Paul I had received a phone cail from licensing indieating that the coverage dates had to be changed to show an exgirarion date of 11-1-96 with a new policy period thereafter to be 11-1 — 11-1 annually. Attached is the originat deolarations from ttie insurance carriez who provided the caverage 1 i-30-95 to expiration and a revised cenificate showing che requested new eacpiration date of 11-1-96. It is my opinion tl�at the insured was under the unpression that the 11-30 date was to be t3ie annual expiration and renewal dates from day 1 as this is when the ariginal dates were according to the ori�nal policy.
