## Opinion text

WILKINS, Justice
(concurring with reservation):
I concur with reservation.
I believe petitioner should prevail and thereby not be denied a license in this case. And I concur in the reasoning and authorities of the majority opinion for this result which pertain to the Commission’s being estopped from denying a license in this unusual case.
I respectfully suggest though that other stated grounds in the majority opinion for the Court’s conclusion are not necessary, the doctrine of estoppel being completely dispositive herein.
