This bill introduces a new chapter, Chapter 39, to Title 6 of the Idaho Code, which establishes provisions regarding indecent sexual exhibitions and the civil actions that can arise from them. The legislation outlines the responsibilities of individuals and institutions that organize or host live shows involving sexual conduct, particularly when minors may be present. It mandates that reasonable steps must be taken to restrict minors' access to such performances if they are deemed patently offensive according to contemporary community standards. Additionally, it provides a private cause of action for minors who are exposed to sexual conduct in violation of these provisions, allowing them to seek statutory damages and recover costs.

The bill also defines key terms such as "host," "minor," and "sexual conduct," and specifies the conditions under which an affirmative defense may be claimed. For instance, a host can defend against liability if they have a legally enforceable contract with performers that prohibits indecent exhibitions, or if a minor is accompanied by a parent or guardian. Furthermore, the bill empowers the attorney general or county prosecuting attorney to seek injunctive relief against violators. The act is declared to be severable, ensuring that if any part is found invalid, the remaining provisions will still stand. An emergency clause is included, making the act effective thirty days after being signed by the Governor.
