I’m pretty sure that’s only specific states or locales in the USA with liability laws for over serving. But also good luck to the prosecution proving a single bartender or establishment was the reason a person was overly intoxicated. In my non lawyer opinion a simple defense of “idk if she drank more before or after showing up or was on any drugs” would probably be more than enough to give reasonable doubt. But IANAL so maybe I’m off base.
I’ve never actually heard of a case of that being prosecuted in Ohio (where I live and we have laws about overserving customers). I’m sure if I look it up I could find something but it just seems like the sort of thing an AG would have difficulty getting charges to stick.
