A pregnant woman keeps ordering drinks, but you decide to cut her off after you see her stumble on her way up to the bar. Ten minutes later, your manager comes up to you and says that the woman is telling everyone she wants to sue the establishment for discrimination. Can she really do this?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

She can in fact file suit, but the case would likely be thrown out quickly since your reasons for cutting her off had to do with the fact that she was intoxicated - not that she was pregnant.
It is not illegal to serve pregnant women alcohol, and refusing to do so is considered discrimination. However, pregnant women should be treated like other customers and should be cut off when they appear intoxicated. Continuing to serve any intoxicated person is another crime and can come with additional consequences.
