What decisions of the Licensing Board can be appealed?
All decisions of the Licensing Board are subject to appeal. A party with legal standing to do so (denied applicants, those with an economic interest in property affected by the license, and property owners who fall under the legal remonstrance rule) may appeal the ruling within 10 days of the final decision of the board. Liquor appeals go to the Department of Business Regulation. All others must go by petition for certiorari to the Rhode Island Supreme Court.
