The Alcoholic Beverage Control Act provides that any on- or off-sale licensee, or agent or employee of the licensee, who sells, gives, or delivers to any person any alcoholic beverage between the hours of 2 a.m. and 6 a.m. of the same day, and any person who knowingly purchases any alcoholic beverages between those hours, is guilty of a misdemeanor.

The bill would impose specified fees related to the license to be deposited in the Alcohol Beverage Control Fund. The bill would require the applicant to notify specified persons of the application for an additional hours license and would provide a procedure for protest and hearing regarding the application. The bill would require the Department of the California Highway Patrol and each qualified city that has elected to participate in the program to submit reports to the Legislature and specified committees regarding the regional impact of the additional hours licenses, as specified. The bill would provide that any person under 21 years of age who enters and remains in the licensed public premises during the additional serving hours without lawful business therein is guilty of a misdemeanor, as provided.

Existing law requires a social worker to investigate these court-referred allegations of child abuse to the same extent as any other child abuse allegations, including interviewing a child 4 years of age or older under specific circumstances. Existing law requires the local child welfare services agency, upon completion of the investigation, to report its findings to the court. This bill would require a court to request the local child welfare services agency to conduct an investigation of allegations of child abuse, including child sexual abuse, made during a child custody proceeding, when the court determines that it cannot protect the child from future child abuse, either through custody or protective orders. This bill would require the local welfare agency, upon completion of the investigation, to report its findings to the court. By requiring a local child welfare services agency to conduct an investigation under these additional circumstances, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.
