Liquor: other; payment of administrative fee to wholesaler for a payment dishonored by a financial institution; require. Amends sec. 903b of 1998 PA 58 (MCL 436.1903b).

SB 88 requires liquor retailers to pay administrative fees to wholesalers when payments are bounced due to insufficient funds. It directly affects liquor retailers who make dishonored payments and wholesalers who collect these fees. The bill establishes a progressive fee structure: $50 for the first bounced payment, increasing to $250 for the fifth or subsequent bounced payments within a 12-month period. Wholesalers must charge these fees for each bounced payment, with higher fees applying for repeated offenses within the same 12-month window. This changes the existing law by adding specific fee amounts and requiring wholesalers to enforce them.
