  1. TITLE 39 HEALTH AND SAFETY
  2. CHAPTER 57 PREVENTION OF MINORS’ ACCESS TO TOBACCO PRODUCTS OR ELECTRONIC SMOKING DEVICES

(1) It shall be unlawful to sell, distribute, or offer tobacco products or electronic smoking devices to a minor.

(2) It shall be an affirmative defense that the seller of a tobacco product or an electronic smoking device to a minor in violation of this section had requested, examined, and reasonably relied upon a photographic identification from such person establishing that the person is at least twenty-one (21) years of age prior to selling such person a tobacco product or an electronic smoking device. The failure of a seller to request and examine photographic identification from a person under twenty-one (21) years of age prior to the sale of a tobacco product or an electronic smoking device to such person shall be construed against the seller and form a conclusive basis for the seller’s violation of this section.
