§ 112260 Burden Of Proof Exemptions

• •If the state says you broke a rule, they don’t have to prove you didn’t qualify for an exception.
• •If you think you’re allowed to break the rule because of an exception, you have to prove it.
• •The state only has to show you broke the rule; you have to show why you should be excused.

You get caught selling food without a permit, but you think you don’t need one because you’re selling at a small farmers' market.

The state just has to show you sold food without a permit. If you say you’re allowed because of an exception (like selling at a farmers' market), you have to prove that exception applies to you.
