O'CONNOR, J.

{¶ 1} In this appeal we are asked to determine whether the Ohio Liquor Control Commission has authority under R.C. 4301.25(A)(1) to suspend a liquor permit when a former employee of the permit holder is convicted of a felony for an act committed while the former employee was employed by the permit holder. We hold that the statute does not authorize suspension of the permit under these circumstances.
