Is it true that a licensee, server, and manager can be held liable for actions resulting in death or injury caused by a minor who was served alcohol?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only the licensee would be liable

  4. Only the server would be liable

The correct answer is: True

The statement is true because all parties involved in the sale and service of alcohol have a responsibility to ensure it is not provided to minors. If a minor is served alcohol and subsequently causes death or injury, the licensee, server, and manager could all be held legally liable. This reflects the legal principle of vicarious liability, where employers can be held responsible for the actions of their employees when those actions occur in the course of their duties. In addition to the potential criminal consequences for serving alcohol to minors, there are also civil liabilities that can arise from such actions. This means that if a minor drinks and then engages in harmful behavior like causing an accident, various parties can be sued for damages resulting from that incident. This underlines the importance of responsible alcohol service and adherence to laws concerning the serving of alcohol to underage individuals.
