Prohibición de venta de alcohol cerca de instituciones estatales

Explicación Simple

Esta ley dice que no puedes vender alcohol cerca de ciertos lugares importantes, como prisiones o universidades. Si lo haces, podrías tener problemas con la ley y recibir una multa o ir a la cárcel por un tiempo.

Es como si en una fiesta no pudieras tener música alta cerca de una casa donde hay bebés durmiendo. La idea es mantener un ambiente seguro y tranquilo en lugares sensibles.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan quiere abrir un pequeño bar cerca de una universidad en Berkeley. Antes de hacerlo, debe asegurarse de que no esté a menos de una milla de la universidad. Si no lo verifica y decide abrirlo, podría enfrentar multas o incluso pasar tiempo en la cárcel.

Penalidades

Multa de al menos $100 o prisión de hasta 50 días, o ambas.
