Getting Banned From a Local Store

Re: Getting Banned From a Local Store

What if hes kicking you out of his store for a personal/legal matter that happened 13 years ago and has been expunged from your record?

The exact area of law is the "Public Accomodation" laws (state and federal), meaning any place of PA, such as a store, can only ban business invitees for a reason NOT prohibited by law, yours, I would greatly venture, is not one.

Such reasons of prohibition to ban may be race, color, sexual orienation, etc.

Can a store owner kick you out of a store and/or deny you serve because of past criminal records?

An owner of a business can refuse a customer except for grounds that constitute class discrimination of a protected class under federal law, the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Those who rack up criminal records are not a protected class.

Any private business can choose not to allow you on their premises for that reason.
