If I received a DUI but I’m no longer on probation or parole, can I be a licensee on an alcoholic beverage license?

If you received a DUI but are no longer on probation or parole and you have been off probation or parole for a reasonable period of time, you may qualify to be a licensee on an alcoholic beverage license, as long as you are not on probation or parole for any other offenses, or have not been convicted of or plead guilty or no contest to any crime involving moral turpitude (theft, fraud, drugs, pornography, etc.). Before bidding on any alcoholic beverage license, you should check with your Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control's District Office to make sure you qualify to be an alcoholic beverage license licensee and/or that you have been off probation or parole long enough to qualify. Under certain circumstances, the commission of a state or federal crime may prevent you from ever being a licensee on an alcoholic beverage license whether or not you have completed probation or parole.
