This bill is proposing an amendment to the penal law in New York related to the sanctions imposed on individuals who sell alcoholic beverages to minors. Currently, the bill outlines specific fines and potential jail time for individuals convicted of unlawfully dealing with a child in the first degree, especially in cases of repeated offenses.
If this bill becomes law, individuals found guilty of selling alcohol to minors could face increasing fines and potential jail time depending on the number of convictions they have. The bill aims to enforce stricter penalties to deter individuals from selling alcohol to minors, aiming to protect young people from the dangers of underage drinking.
