lol in this case the venue doesn't have a liquor licence (I recall that it used to serve alcohol in its Viva days; I'm sure it had one back then) and the toxicology tests might take months and if there were drugs involved then there's no way the venue could be charged because they don't serve it.

They could still be found negilgent under both common law and the Occupiers Liability Act depending on whether or not they took proper precautions to ensure that the premisis were reasonably safe.

I'm gonna have to agree with Moral Hazard, according to hospitality law, the establishment is liable for the guests. Of course there are different ways of interpreting the law, but the the bottom line is, if the bar is responsible for getting you wasted, they are responsible for your actions. It is up to them to cut you off after you had enough. Also, if somebody comes in drunk into the bar already and is served, the onus is up to the establishment to prove that they were not responsible. So, if you go to a bar, get wasted to the point of extreme intoxication, get kicked out and hurt yourself, you can sue the establishment for not cutting you off sooner.

I was unaware we were talking about a specific place; however, tavern or no tavern, common law and the occupier's liability act will still apply.

Originally posted by slingshot If I saw someone passed out in a club, I would immediately leave said club and come home and make a thread about it on tranceaddict.com as fast as I could. I would than cross my fingers and hope that the thread that I made would make me look cool and strengthen my internet persona. I've been told by multiple people that redundant discussion on the internet is where it's at.

wahahahahahaha oh god that's sig worthy !!!!
