Alcoholic Beverages - As introduced, requires each officer who takes possession of intoxicating liquor to file within 10 days, rather than five days, a written statement with the circuit or criminal court clerk identifying the kind and quantity of the liquor taken, and from whom the liquor was taken, if known. - Amends TCA Title 57 and Title 67.
HB 1533 (introduced by Rep. Marsh) changes a Tennessee law requiring law enforcement officers who seize intoxicating liquor to file a written report with the court clerk. The bill extends the deadline from five to ten days for submitting details including the type and amount of liquor seized, and the source if known. This amendment applies specifically to officers handling alcohol confiscations under Tennessee Code Titles 57 and 67. The change affects law enforcement procedures for documenting alcohol-related seizures but does not alter penalties or licensing rules.
