Letterly, 141 Cal.Rptr. 682, 684 (Cal.Ct.App. 1977), the California Court of Appeal ruled as a matter of law that an underage individual who did nothing more than contribute between $2 and $5 to a common fund intended to be used for the purchase of liquor for consumption by his underage friends, did not violate a statute which made liable "[e]very person who sells, furnishes, gives, or causes to be sold, furnished, or given away, any alcoholic beverages to any person under the age of 21 years."
