Existing law requires the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control to produce an alleged minor for examination in a hearing on an accusation charging a licensee with violating 3 specified provisions relating to providing alcoholic beverages to a minor, employing a minor to prepare or serve alcoholic beverages, or permitting a minor to enter and remain in the licensed premises, except as specified.
This bill would remove the requirement to produce the alleged minor in a hearing relating to 2 of the specified provisions and would instead require the department to produce the alleged minor decoy, as defined, in a hearing on an accusation charging a licensee with providing alcoholic beverages to a minor.
