Source-supplied abstracts

Existing law regulates the safety of various consumer products, including, among other things, specific additives in foods, chemicals in products for young children, and lead in tableware. This bill would prohibit a person from selling, offering to sell, or giving away as either a retail or wholesale promotion, and a delivery seller from selling, delivering, or causing to be delivered, an over-the-counter diet pill or dietary supplement for weight loss or muscle building, as defined, to any person in this state under 18 years of age, except as specified, by requiring a specified identification check. The bill would make a person who violates these provisions liable for a civil penalty of no more than $500 for each violation, as specified, and would authorize the Attorney General, a county counsel, or a city attorney to apply to a court for, and would authorize that court to have jurisdiction upon hearing and for cause shown to grant, a temporary or permanent injunction enjoining or restraining any person or entity from violating any of the prohibitions. The bill would make a prevailing plaintiff in an action under these provisions entitled to an award of reasonable attorney's fees and costs.
