Removing a patron from a drinking establishment comes with significant legal responsibilities. If an intoxicated, aggressive, or disruptive guest is ejected without proper procedures, the venue could face wrongful ejection lawsuits, excessive force claims, or premises liability issues. Additionally, if an ejected guest is injured, assaulted, or involved in a DUI crash after removal, the venue may be held liable for negligence or failing to ensure patron safety.
A clear, structured ejection policy helps venues prevent wrongful removals, excessive force incidents, and post-ejection liability claims. This evaluation ensures ejection procedures align with legal standards, reducing risk and protecting patron rights..
“Forcefully ejecting a patron without proper aftercare—such as safe transportation or medical attention—is one of the fastest ways to escalate a manageable incident into a costly lawsuit. Neglecting post-ejection safety can lead to serious legal consequences.”
— Laura M. Jenkins
