Summary

The bill lets short‑term lodging operators—hotels, campgrounds and RV parks—request that a guest leave if they fail to check out or pay by the scheduled time. If the guest does not leave within 24 hours of the request, the operator may call law enforcement to remove the guest, and the guest could be charged with a Class 1 misdemeanor. Wrongful ejections give the guest a right to sue for damages and attorney’s fees.
