| Are you asking about transporting alcoholic beverages to places where they will be sold? |

| I dont have any kind of licence yet. I have the Idea to start it, but I don't have any clue where to start it. I am planning to have my own storage and delivery people, so I receive an order and deliver it to homes or any where they want the drinks at. | |

| Interesting. Then you will have a plan on verification of age. I can see adults buying alcohol for teens and having it delivered to the home. Not everyone is honest, unfortunately. | |

Pay to call J_9 for advice ($.75/min) | I agree with Shy here. I see this as a litigious disaster waiting to happen. Depending on where you live, the licensing for such a business may be non-existant due to the risks involved. | |

| There will be a strict ID verification form that I planned to prepare. As for me, when my delivery guys deliver the drinks, they gonna retain a copy of the form for refference. If any thing happened, I don't think I will be liable for it because I delivered/sold it for a legal over the age person. I have the copy of Id verification form signed by the receiver. So if he/she gave it to a third person who is under age, I belive it is not my fault.
P.S I live in California!!!!!!!! | |

| Check that out with your attorney. You know how sue happy people get once they get into trouble. Even bars now are being sued when someone gets picked up on a DWI/DUI. | |

Pay to call J_9 for advice ($.75/min) | Bars? How about grocery stores? Yes, grocery stores in many states are now getting sued when someone gets a DUI/DWI, or an accident, if the birth date of the purchaser is not on the receipt when the purchaser purchased the alcohol in question. | |
