The Safe Harbor Defense is somewhat unclear as to what happens if the bar or restaurant owner or manager himself serves an obviously intoxicated person. In the case of 20281, Inc. v. Parker, the Texas Supreme Court gave some guidance on this issue. In that case, the Texas Supreme Court opined that vice-principals were the employer and not the employee for purposes of the Texas Dram Shop Act. As a result, the Texas Dram Shop Safe Harbor Defense does not even apply to protect them.
