Other Alcohol Related Charges
Alcohol-related charges in Louisiana vary based on location, degree, and even the defendant themselves. As such, various statutes apply:
Misrepresentation of age to obtain alcoholic beverages or gain entry to licensed premises prohibited
Purchase and public possession of alcoholic beverages
Unauthorized possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages on public school property
Underage operating while intoxicated
Unlawful purchase of alcoholic beverages by persons on behalf of persons under twenty-one
Alchohol charges involving vehicles can be found on our DUI Page
Each of these charges have distinguishing elements a prosecutor must prove beyond a reasonable doubt to convict a defendant. Even though each of these charges carry less than 6 months in jail upon their first offense, they should still be taken seriously. Further, many misdemeanors have the potential to become felonies upon the discovery of further facts.
