When a town has a separate ordinance for underage drinking and you are caught within that jurisdiction, you will be charged under the town ordinance.
However, if you are caught in an area of the state with no ordinance, you’ll be charged with a NJ state underage drinking offense.
If you or a family member have been charged with underage drinking and are in need of legal help, please call Matthew Reisig for a free consultation at (888) 628-8394.
