What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, with certain exceptions, a person who has not reached the legal drinking age of 21 years (underage person), and who is not accompanied by his or her parent, guardian, or spouse who has attained the legal drinking age, may not knowingly possess or consume alcohol beverages. Current law prohibits an adult from knowingly permitting or failing to take action to prevent the illegal consumption of alcohol beverages by an underage person on "premises" owned by the adult or under the adult's control. "Premises" is defined as the area described in a license or permit for the sale of alcohol beverages.
This bill prohibits an adult from knowingly permitting or failing to take action to prevent the illegal consumption of alcohol beverages by an underage person on property owned and occupied by the adult or occupied by the adult and under the adult's control. This prohibition applies regardless of whether the property is covered by an alcohol beverages license or permit.
