A vendor who negligently sells to an underage person may be liable for acts of the intoxicated underage person. Sorensen v. Jarvis, 119 Wis. 2d 627, 350 N.W.2d 108 (1984). A host who negligently furnished alcohol to an underage guest was negligent per se and liable for injuries to a 3rd party arising out of the guest's intoxication. Koback v. Crook, 123 Wis. 2d 259, 366 N.W.2d 857 (1985). Sub. (1) (a) prohibits underage persons, as well as adults, from providing alcoholic beverages to underage persons. Smith v. Kappel, 147 Wis. 2d 380, 433 N.W.2d 588 (Ct. App. 1988). The purpose of sub. (3) is not to avoid the likelihood that a minor who enters a licensed premises will subsequently commit an off-premises assault; a licensee who violates sub. (3) is not negligent per se if such an assault occurs. Symes v. Milwaukee Mut. Ins. Co. 178 Wis. 2d 564, 505 N.W.2d 143 (Ct. App. 1993). Sub. (6) provides two lines of defense: the defendant can produce any factors believed relevant including those listed in pars. (a) to (d) or can produce evidence meeting all four elements of pars. (a) to (d), which if proven constitutes an absolute defense. City of Oshkosh v. Abitz, 187 Wis. 2d 202, 522 N.W.2d 258 (Ct. App. 1994). In order to "knowingly permit" consumption by an underage person under sub. (1) (a) 3., there must be evidence, or a reasonable inference from evidence, that the person knew or should have known that drinking would occur. Miller v. Thomack, 204 Wis. 2d 242, 555 N.W.2d 130 (Ct. App. 1996), 95-1684. An individual who contributes money for the intent of purchasing alcohol knowing that it will be consumed by an underage person "procures" alcohol for the underage person. Miller v. Thomack, 210 Wis. 2d 650, 563 N.W.2d 891 (1997), 95-1684. Underage drinkers are not accompanied by a parent for the purposes of sub. (1) (a) merely because the parent and child are on the same premises. Parents who held a party and told their son not to drink where he could be observed by the other guests and who did not know how much their son drank were neither supervising nor otherwise controlling their son when he was drinking and were thus not accompanying him. Mueller v. McMillian Warner Insurance Company, 2005 WI App 210, 287 Wis. 2d 154, 704 N.W.2d 613, 05-0121. Affirmed on other grounds. 2006 WI 54, 290 Wis. 2d 571, 714 N.W.2d 183, 05-0121. A county's social host ordinance did not strictly comply with this section because it applied to the host's residence. Under sub. (1) (a) 3., "No adult may knowingly permit or fail to take action to prevent the illegal consumption of alcohol beverages by an underage person on premises owned by the adult or under the adult's control." "Premises" is defined under s. 125.02(14m) as "the area described in a license or permit." The definition limits sub. (1) (a) 3. to areas described in a license or permit not a private residence. There is no textual basis to depart from basic statutory construction: the defined term must be given effect. County of Fond du Lac v. Muche, 2016 WI App 84, 372 Wis. 2d 403, 888 N.W.2d 12, 15-2223.
