§ 111.24 SCOPE OF LICENSE; TRANSFERABILITY; DECEDENT’S AND INSOLVENT’S ESTATES; REFUND OF FEE.
   A license issued pursuant to this subchapter shall be purely a personal privilege, good for not to exceed one year after issuance, except special event retailer licenses, unless sooner revoked as is provided in this subchapter, and it shall not constitute property, nor shall it be the subject of attachment, garnishment or execution, nor shall it be alienable or transferable, voluntarily or involuntarily, or subject to be encumbered or hypothecated. The license shall not descend by the laws of testate or intestate devolution, but it shall cease upon the death of the licensee; provided that, the executors or administrators of the estate of any deceased licensee and the trustee of any insolvent or bankrupt licensee, when the estate consists in part of alcoholic liquor, may continue the business of the sale of alcoholic liquor under the order of the appropriate court and may exercise the privileges of the deceased or insolvent or bankrupt licensee after the death of the licensee or the insolvency or bankruptcy, until the expiration of the license, but not longer than six months after the death, bankruptcy or insolvency of the licensee. A special event retailer license shall be issued for a specific time period, not to exceed 15 days per licensee in any 12-month period. A refund shall be made of that portion of the license fee paid for any period in which the licensee shall be prevented from operating under the license due to death or bankruptcy.
