Any malt beverage possessed, sold, or offered for sale by a retail dealer which was purchased or otherwise acquired from any person other than a wholesale dealer authorized to do business under this chapter is declared to be contraband and shall be seized by the commissioner or the appropriate local authorities and disposed of by the commissioner in the manner provided in this title.

JUDICIAL DECISIONS

County sheriff is "appropriate local authority"

- The reference to "appropriate local authorities" does not appear to vest the power of seizure in a county commissioner, but rather to vest the power of seizure in the person who is traditionally responsible for the enforcement of the laws of a county - the county sheriff. Scoggins v. Moore, 579 F. Supp. 1320 (N.D. Ga.), aff'd, 747 F.2d 1466 (11th Cir. 1984).
