Why Do We Need a Bill Creating Social Host Liability?
The Consumer
Attorneys of California along with other groups, including
BISNAR
CHASE, strongly support AB 2486 authored by Mike Feuer which
will create “social host liability” for persons who knowingly serve
alcohol to a minor.
“Social host liability” means that someone who is a “social
host,” not a person serving alcohol for money like a bar, but
someone entertaining in their home, can be held responsible for
injuries or death sustained by a person underage involved in an
accident and to any third person who also becomes involved. The
underage person would have to be leaving the home of the “social
host” and get into this accident while under the influence of
alcohol served by the “social host.”
