(a) The commission or administrator may suspend for not more than 60 days or cancel an original or renewal retail dealer's on- or off-premise license if it is found, after notice and hearing, that the licensee purchased malt beverages or the containers or original packages in which they are contained or packaged except by cash payment to the seller on or before delivery. No holder of either type of license may use a maneuver, device, subterfuge, or shift by which credit is accepted, including payment or attempted payment by a postdated check or draft. Credit for the return of unbroken or undamaged containers or original packages previously paid for by the purchaser may be accepted as cash by the seller in an amount not more than the amount originally paid for them by the purchaser.
(b) The commission or administrator may suspend for not more than 60 days or cancel an original or renewal retail dealer's on- or off-premise license if it is found, after notice and hearing, that the licensee gave a check, as maker or endorser, or a draft, as drawer or endorser, as full or partial payment for malt beverages or the containers or packages in which they are contained or packaged, which is dishonored when presented for payment.
