The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Alexander Stumpp, Appellant.
    Supreme Court, Appellate Term, Second Department,
    May 28,1986
    APPEARANCES OF COUNSEL
    
      Ronald C. Schule, P. C., for appellant. Patrick Henry, District Attorney (Ronald E. Lipetz of counsel), for respondent.
   OPINION OF THE COURT

Memorandum.

Judgment of conviction affirmed.

Since a police officer is permitted to inspect premises selling liquor for on-premises consumption and since such inspection includes the right to inspect books and records, the defendant was properly convicted of obstructing governmental administration for refusing access to his books and records (see, Penal Law § 195.05; Alcoholic Beverage Control Law §§ 106, 130; Matter of Barski v State Liq. Auth., 285 App Div 996).
