Will Memphis be putting more bite into liquor laws?
November 28, 2007
USA Today had an interesting post today that looks at how new liquor laws that are in effect in TX and NJ could effect everyone from bar owners to restauranteurs here in Memphis and surrounding ares.
The article discusses how states such as Texas, New Jersey and Washington have began compiling lists of “top drinking establishments” by asking people who have been pulled over for DUI where they had there last drink.
This new rule to me seems invasive of privacy. It also opens up all types of problems for restaurants and bars. Yes, these establishments need to serve their patrons drinks in a responsible manor. But where does the liability for what someone does on their own cut off?
Here is the link with the full article, http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-11-27-last-drink_N.htm, let me know what you guys think in the comment section.
P.S. always remember if you’ve found yourself in a tough situation with a DUI and need help call us at the Ferrell Law Firm. That’s what we are here for.
