(2017 Wisconsin Act 126, amend sec. 125.07(1)(a)3., effective December 10, 2017)

Current law prohibits an adult from knowingly permitting or failing to take action to prevent illegal consumption of alcohol beverages by an underage person on premises owned or controlled by the adult. "Premises" has been interpreted by the courts to mean an area described in a license or permit to sell alcohol beverages. Act 126 revises the statute, making the prohibition applicable on any property owned and occupied by an adult, or occupied by an adult and under the adult's control.
