Summary

The bill revises the definition of ticket scalping to include tickets for events presented by the state, its political subdivisions, or tax‑exempt nonprofit organizations. Each illegal sale is treated as a separate misdemeanor, punishable by up to a $500 fine, up to one year in jail, or both, while still permitting service‑fee contracts. The change seeks to protect consumers and ensure fair pricing for public and charitable events.
