Yarbrough V. Montoya

The appellee made application to the appellant, Chief of Division of Liquor Control, for a license authorizing him to sell intoxicating liquors at retail at Animas, Hidalgo County. Following an investigation by one of his liquor inspectors and some protests from citizens of the area, the appellant declined to issue the license. An appeal was then taken to the District Court of Santa Fe County pursuant to Section 61-516, 1941 Comp. (Supp), where the decision of the appellant was reversed with a direction to issue the license. This appeal followed.
