This bill establishes a civil cause of action for holders of alcoholic beverage licenses against underage individuals who misrepresent their age to obtain alcohol. Specifically, it is deemed a civil offense for anyone under the legal drinking age to falsely claim their age, particularly by using a fake driver's license or other government-issued identification to persuade a licensee or their employee to sell, serve, or deliver alcoholic beverages. If a licensee's license is suspended due to such an offense, they are granted the right to pursue legal action against the underage individual responsible for the misrepresentation.

The bill outlines the liability of the underage person, stating that they may be required to compensate the licensee for any monetary offers accepted by the Director of the Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control, as well as reasonable attorney's fees and costs incurred during the legal process. Additionally, it specifies that a parent or guardian of the juvenile can be held liable for payment only if they are named as a defendant and it is proven that their actions significantly contributed to the juvenile's offense. The term "licensee" is defined as the holder of an alcoholic beverage license under existing law.
