§45-20-150.11. Revocation of bingo permits.

The sheriff, for good cause shown, may revoke any permit if the permit holder or any officer, director, agent, member, or employee of the permit holder violates this article or rule promulgated pursuant to this article. The revocation by the sheriff shall become effective 10 days after proper notice by the sheriff to the permit holder unless within the 10-day period the permit holder makes a written request for a hearing to the county commission. All existing rules and procedures for meetings and hearings before the county commission shall apply unless in direct conflict with this article. Following a full hearing and the rendering of a written decision by the county commission, either party may appeal the decision directly to the Circuit Court of Covington County and request a trial by jury. The rendering of a decision adverse to the permit holder by the county commission shall result in the immediate revocation of the subject permit.
