Code § 75-73-9 | Casetext Search + Citator".
The gravamen of this offense involves failure to pay an incurred bill at a bar, cafe, hotel, motel or restaurant with intent to defraud the business establishment. It can be charged either under state law or local ordinance. In Michigan and many other states, "defrauding an innkeeper" is a specialized statutory misdemeanor offense, with a maximum penalty of 93 days in jail and a fine of up to $500 and possible probation for up to 2 years. In some locales, this is an illegal form of wage theft, and if the server is held responsible for tabs that are not paid, the employer is liable for paying back the server's stolen wages. They may do so explicitly by deducting unpaid meals from wages or tips, or implicitly through an end-of-shift reconciliation system whereby the server is expected to provide enough cash and credit card receipts to cover the cost of their customers' meals, and keeps any surplus as tips. Sometimes the establishment may make their employees pay the cost of customer theft to give them an incentive to police their customers. In one case, Paul Guadalupe Gonzales, who became known as the "Dine-and-Dash Dater", was arrested and charged with 10 felonies after 13 women came forward about his actions. in Mississippi, it is a felony offense to refuse to pay a bill over $25.00. In certain states, however, dining and dashing is not labelled as a criminal issue. When the customer intended in advance to leave their bill unpaid and therefore obtained the valuable services under false pretenses, failing to pay the bill is considered theft and is a form of criminal fraud. The diner's intent differentiates the civil case of failing to pay a bill from the criminal act of defrauding an innkeeper. However, defrauding an innkeeper-to dine and dash-is more than just failing to pay a bill. It is a contract debt, and the act is civil rather than criminal in nature. Simply failing to pay a bill when due is generally not a crime in most United States circumstances or jurisdictions. The act usually involves the client placing an order for a meal, consuming the meal, and then exiting the establishment before or after being presented with the bill. In the US, to dine and dash is a form of theft, typically in which a patron or patrons order and consume food and/or beverages from a restaurant or similar establishment with the intent not to pay. " Dine and dash" is a popular American phrase for the illegal act of "defrauding an innkeeper" or failing to pay for services with the intent to defraud the owner of a hotel, restaurant, campground, or any other establishment that serves food and/or beverages.
