§ 4-58. Examination of applicant.

(a)

At any time during the pendency of an application for issuance or renewal, the local liquor control commissioner shall have the right to compel the applicant to submit to any examination and to produce any books and records which, in the judgment of the local liquor control commissioner, are material to the determination of whether the applicant is qualified to receive a license under the provisions of this article, or whether the premises sought to be licensed are suitable for such purposes.

(b)

The local liquor control commissioner shall also have the right to require the applicant to answer any objection to the issuance or renewal of the license or any charges made by any deputy commissioner, or by the sheriff or prosecuting attorney of the county.

(c)

The failure of any applicant to appear at the time and place fixed by the local liquor control commissioner for his examination or to produce books and records requested, unless for good cause shown, shall be deemed to be an admission that the objections or charges are true and that the applicant is not qualified to receive a license.
