Bill > H3020

This bill amends South Carolina law to remove playing a pinball machine as a "status offense," which is an act that would not be illegal if committed by an adult, such as truancy or running away from home. Specifically, it modifies two sections of the South Carolina Code of Laws that define status offenses to exclude pinball machine play and repeals a separate section of the code that specifically addressed the playing of pinball machines by minors, effectively decriminalizing this activity for young people in the state.
