Vermont § 214 - Proof of financial responsibility

§ 214. Proof of financial responsibility

• (a) Any first-, second-, or third-class licensee whose license is suspended by the local
  control commissioners or suspended or revoked by the Board of Liquor and Lottery for
  selling or furnishing alcoholic beverages to a minor, to a person apparently under
  the influence of alcohol, to a person after legal serving hours, or to a person who
  it would be reasonable to expect would be intoxicated as a result of the amount of
  alcoholic beverages served to that person shall be required to furnish to the Commissioner
  a certificate of financial responsibility within 60 days of the commencement of the
  suspension or revocation or at the time of reinstatement of the license, whichever
  is later. Financial responsibility may be established by any one or a combination
  of the following: insurance, surety bond, or letter of credit. Coverage shall be maintained
  at not less than $25,000.00 per occurrence and $50,000.00 aggregate per occurrence.
  Proof of financial responsibility shall be required for license renewal for the three
  years following the suspension or revocation. (b)(1) Proof of financial responsibility and completion of the licensee education program
  established in section 213 of this title shall be conditions for a licensee to be permitted to resume operation after a suspension
  or revocation for any of the reasons in subsection (a) of this section. (2) However, at the discretion of the suspending or revoking authority, the licensee may
  receive a provisional license prior to the time these conditions are met in order
  to allow for compliance with the education requirement or to obtain the certificate
  of financial responsibility. A provisional license may not be issued for a period
  exceeding 60 days. (Added 1987, No. 103, § 3; amended 2017, No. 83, § 33; 2018, No. 1 (Sp. Sess.), § 36.)
