Under 60-7a-15, public nuisance bars are defined as premises that:

• A. Premises with loud music after midnight
• B. Premises continually used for an unlawful purpose
• C. Premises with more than three underage patrons
• D. Premises with expired liquor license

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that a public nuisance bar is defined by ongoing unlawful use of the premises. Under 60-7a-15, the focus is on repeated illegal activity happening at the location, which makes the establishment a public nuisance and justifies regulatory action. This is why the option describing continual unlawful use best fits the statute: it covers a broad range of persistent illegal activities and aligns with the statute’s purpose to address ongoing wrongdoing in places serving alcohol. The other scenarios describe issues like noise, underage patrons, or licensing status, which can be problems but do not define a public nuisance bar in the statute’s terms.
