Already covered in FL.
n. a statute (Dram Shop*Act) or caselaw*in 43 states which makes a business which sells alcoholic drinks or a host who serves liquor to a drinker who is obviously intoxicated or close to it, strictly liable to anyone injured by the drunken patron or guest. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk |

In Fl the business is allowed to totally exempt, except if the patrol was under 21 or known to have drinking problem--you would think the trial lawyers would work to change this law-after all, they look for the deepest pockets

Here is some general information. http://www.ncsl.org/research/financi...-statutes.aspx Some states do not allow children to be seated where alcohol is served. Not so in Ohio. The local pubs often have families dining in view of the bar. (All those beer drinkin' Germans)

Our niece is a regional sales representative for a major U.S. Wine Company. Uncle was regional sales manager for many years for Jim Beam. Father and Grandfather were managing directors of a large family owned brewery in Ohio. Both brewmasters. Just because I don't drink, doesn't mean I haven't heard the language. I have never heard a bar called a dram shop. EVER. Until this day. Shows you that our language is regional. We try not to get on the wrong side of the law.... Although a couple of lawyers have snuck into the family.

The term is used nationwide. It is a LEGAL term, not a REGIONAL term.

I just asked my husband if he knew what a dram shop is and he said no. He isn't a dummy.
