When Yeagher’s attempts to obtain a liquor license failed, the parties devised a plan for the operation of the pub whereby Yeagher would operate the pub under the plaintiffs liquor license, with Yeagher acting as “manager” and the plaintiff as “owner.” The court found that “the plaintiff and Yeagher engaged in an unlawful ruse to deceive the liquor control authorities. The plaintiff pretended that it was he who owned the pub instead of Yeagher’s corporation, and Yeagher pretended that he was merely a manager rather than the principal shareholder of the corporation that owned the business. The parties went so far as to create a dummy checking account in the plaintiffs name to be used when necessary to maintain the false appearance of the plaintiffs ownership of the business.”
