Summary

Existing law generally prohibits a social host who furnishes alcoholic beverages to any person from being held legally accountable for damages suffered by that person, or for injury to the person or property of, or death of, any 3rd person, resulting from the consumption of those beverages. Existing law excepts from this prohibition claims against a parent, guardian, or another adult who knowingly furnishes alcoholic beverages at his or her residence to a person under 21 years of age and that furnishing the alcoholic beverages may be found to be the proximate cause of resulting injuries or death. This bill would revise the exception described above to permit a claim against a parent, guardian, or another adult for furnishing alcoholic beverages to a person whom he or she knows, or should have known, to be under 21 years of age and that furnishing the alcoholic beverages may be found to be the proximate cause of resulting injuries or death. The bill would permit a claim pursuant to these provisions to be brought by, or on behalf of, the person under 21 years of age or by a person who was harmed by the person under 21 years of age.
