What is legal smoking age in Georgia?

Georgia does not appear to have a legal smoking age. It has an age at which one can legally purchase tobacco products or have them on one's person and for personal use; it appears that the state permits parents of 'minors' to give tobacco products for personal use to the parents' child when the child is in the parent's home. (Check out the italics, which were provided and not in the Georgia statute.)The selling of tobacco related objects to 'minors' is seriously regulated in Georgia. Criminal consequences are possible; however, administrative and regulatory consequences are possible also, and huge economic penalties are possible for a violation of the following statute. As a general rule, businesses which sell tobacco products have age requirements posted at the point of sell, and seriously enforce the legal age measurements before selling tobacco products.Seldom, however, is the prohibition against the purchase of tobacco products by minors enforced against the minors themselves.16-12-171 Statutes and Session Law TITLE 16. CRIMES AND OFFENSES Chapter 16-12 Offenses Against Health and Morals 16-12-171 Transactions involving cigarettes or tobacco related objects with minors ---- 16-12-171 Transactions involving cigarettes or tobacco related objects with minors. (a)(1) It shall be unlawful for any person knowingly to: (A) Sell or barter, directly or indirectly, any cigarettes or tobacco related objects to a minor; (B) Purchase any cigarettes or tobacco related objects for any minor unless the minor for whom the purchase is made is the child of the purchaser; or (C) Advise, counsel, or compel any minor to smoke, inhale, chew, or use cigarettes or tobacco related objects. (2)(A) The prohibition contained in paragraph (1) of this subsection shall not apply with respect to sale of cigarettes, tobacco products, or tobacco related objects by a person when such person has been furnished with proper identification showing that the person to whom the cigarettes, tobacco products, or tobacco related objects are sold is 18 years of age or older. (B) In any case where a reasonable or prudent person could reasonably be in doubt as to whether or not the person to whom cigarettes or tobacco related objects are to be sold or otherwise furnished is actually 18 years of age or older, it shall be the duty of the person selling or otherwise furnishing such cigarettes or tobacco related objects to request to see and to be furnished with proper identification as provided for in subsection (b) of this Code section in order to verify the age of such person. The failure to make such request and verification in any case where the person to whom the cigarettes or tobacco related objects are sold or otherwise furnished is less than 18 years of age may be considered by the trier of fact in determining whether the person selling or otherwise furnishing such cigarettes or tobacco related objects did so knowingly. (3) Any person who violates this subsection shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. (b)(1) It shall be unlawful for any minor to:(A) Purchase, attempt to purchase, or possess for personal use any cigarettes or tobacco related objects. This subparagraph shall not apply to possession of cigarettes or tobacco related objects by a minor when a parent or guardian of such minor gives the cigarettes or tobacco related objects to the minor and possession is in the home of the parent or guardian and such parent or guardian is present; or (B) Misrepresent such minor's identity or age or use any false identification for the purpose of purchasing or procuring any cigarettes or tobacco related objects. (2) A minor who commits an offense provided for in paragraph (1) of this subsection may be punished as follows: (A) By requiring the performance of community service not exceeding 20 hours; (B) By requiring attendance at a publicly or privately sponsored lecture or discussion on the health hazards of smoking or tobacco use, provided such lecture or discussion is offered without charge to the minor; or (C) By a combination of the punishments described in subparagraphs (A) and (B) of this paragraph. ----


Can you press charges against someone that becomes adult in like 2 weeks that pressured a minor into sending nude pics?

How old is the minor, and what state is this in? There are different laws at federal and state levels regarding the possession of child pornography and coercing a minor into lewd sexual acts. Generally speaking, even if the "someone" in question is under 18, they are still in possession of child pornography, so they can be arraigned. Whether they can be charged as an adult or as a minor depends on the laws in that state.

What are the legal penalties if a minor is discovered lying about their age to buy cigarettes online?

Depends on what state you are in, this is for Texas: It is illegal for a minor to lie about his age to obtain tobacco and if you give or sell or share tobacco or share a cigarette with a friend who is not 18, you have broken the law. The punishment for a minor who violates the tobacco law is a fine of up to $250. Tobacco offenses can lead to your driver's license being delayed if you don't have it, or suspended if you do. And if you bring it to school you can face disciplinary proceedings.
