b. A person who makes immovable property that he owns, rents or manages or leaves immovable property in the custody of another person at the disposal of another person, with the intention that alcoholic beverages be made available to persons or consumed by persons who have not yet reached the legal drinking age, is guilty of an administrative offence. II. It is a positive defence to prosecution under this section for a person to notify a law enforcement officer in a timely manner of a drug or liquor house party by minors or otherwise undertake to prevent such a party from occurring, or to take steps to terminate the party once it is in progress. Fig. Rev. Stat. ch. 235, §5/6-21 (a) Any person harmed in this State by an intoxicated person or property shall have the right to bring an action in his own name, individually or jointly, against any person entitled under the laws of that State or of any other State to sell spirits resulting from the sale or supply of spirits within or outside the territorial boundaries of that State; causes intoxication of this person.
Any person who is at least 21 years of age and pays for a hotel or motel room or facility, knowing that such room or facility is intended for use by a person under 21 years of age for the illegal consumption of alcoholic beverages and that such consumption causes intoxication of the person under 21 years of age, is liable to any person: who is personally or materially injured by the drunk person under 21 years of age. Every person who owns, leases, leases or permits the occupation of a building or site therein with knowledge of the sale of liquor or has leased it for other purposes knowingly authorizes the sale of alcoholic liquor that has caused the intoxication of a person, is jointly and severally liable with the person who sells or gives away the spirits. However, if the immovable or premises belong to a minor or another person under guardianship, the guardian of that person is responsible instead of the ward. A married woman has the same right to bring and control the action and the amount received as an unmarried woman. Any claim for damages by a minor under this Act shall be paid either to the minor or to his or her parents, guardian or closest friend, as ordered by the court. The illegal sale or donation of liquor liquor will result in the loss of all rights of the lessee under a lease or rental agreement in the premises where the illegal sale or donation takes place. All actions for damages under this Act may be brought by any appropriate action in the District Court. A lawsuit relates to violations of both livelihoods or the loss of society, but not both, caused by an intoxicated person or as a result of the intoxication of a person as noted above. “Loss of society” means the mutual benefit that each family member receives from the other`s survival, including love, affection, care, attention, companionship, comfort, guidance and protection. “Family” includes spouses, children, parents, siblings. The action shall be brought, if the person by whom maintenance or the company was provided alive, by any person who has been injured in his name in the form of means of assistance or company, for his benefit and for the benefit of all other persons who have been injured by means of the assistance or the company. Any person who alleges to have suffered harm through assistance or a company and who is not involved in any action brought hereunder may join by request made within the time limits provided herein to bring such action, or the personal representative of the deceased person by whom such assistance or company was provided, can agree.
In each such action, the jury shall determine the amount of damages to be compensated without regard to or special instructions with respect to the monetary limits of recovery set forth in this article. The amount recovered in each of these measures shall accrue exclusively to the person injured by the loss of maintenance or the partnership and shall be distributed to such persons to the extent determined by the judgment or judgment rendered in the action. Where the right of action is settled in agreement with the personal representative of a deceased person to whom maintenance or a company has been provided, the court competent to hear the estate of the deceased distributes the amount of the transaction to the person injured by the loss of maintenance or a company in proportion to the proportion determined by the court. the percentage of the maintenance obligation of each of those persons towards the deceased person is equal to the sum of the percentages of the maintenance obligation of all those persons towards the deceased.
