§ 28-59. Rebuttable presumption.  


Latest version.
  • In the enforcement and prosecution of the provisions of §§ 28-45 and 28-46, proof that a building or demolition permit was issued to a person for the subject construction site shall constitute a rebuttable presumption that the permit holder owns or controls that construction site. The failure of any person charged under said provisions to rebut the presumption shall not mean that the trier of fact must find the person guilty or that the burden of proof relative to the underlying charge(s) has been shifted upon the accused.
