Alcohol & Drugs: MIP, MIC, Intoxication Criminal liability when cosigning lease

[miaminice]

If you cosign your son's (age 20) rental agreement are you liable if he allows minors to drink alcohol at his house?

It depends on the State. In my state, Michigan, the answer is no as long as you aren't there and haven't provided the alcohol.

In Virginia, the answer is yes.

Thanks for the reply. We're in Florida.
