What is the penalty for seller-servers for selling alcoholic beverages to a minor with criminal negligence?

  1. Up to a $4,000 fine, confinement in jail for up to 1 year, or both the fine and confinement.

  2. No penalty as it is a common mistake.

  3. Written warning for the first offense.

  4. Verbal warning.

The correct answer is: Up to a $4,000 fine, confinement in jail for up to 1 year, or both the fine and confinement.

Selling alcoholic beverages to a minor with criminal negligence is a serious offense. Option B is incorrect because it is not considered a common mistake and can result in penalties. Option C and D are also incorrect because a written or verbal warning is not a sufficient penalty for this offense. The correct penalty, as stated in option A, is up to a $4,000 fine, confinement in jail for up to 1 year, or both. This reflects the seriousness of the offense and the responsibility of seller-servers to prevent the sale of alcohol to minors.
