INDECENT SEXUAL EXHIBITIONS AND CIVIL ACTIONS -- Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding a civil action following an indecent sexual exhibition.
2025 Regular Session
Sexually explicit shows, exhibitions, or performances when children are present, like material harmful to minors, are a "contributing factor to crime, to juvenile crime, and also a basic factor in impairing the ethical and moral development of our youth" [...] Time, place, and manner regulations on indecent live shows, exhibitions, or performances that both involve sexual conduct and are patently offensive to an average person applying contemporary community standards in the adult community as a whole with respect to what is suitable for minors are constitutionally permissible when there is a reasonable risk that children may be in the audience and alternative avenues of communication still exist.
Any minor who prevails in an action brought pursuant to this sec4 tion may recover five thousand dollars ($5,000) in statutory damages for each violation of this section. The minor may also recover monetary damages from the defendant for all psychological, emotional, economic, and physical harm suffered.
