Indecent waitering consists of a person knowingly and intentionally exposing his intimate parts to public view while serving beverage or food in a licensed liquor establishment. "Intimate parts" means the mons pubis, penis, testicles, mons veneris, vulva, female breast or vagina. As used in this section, "female breast" means the areola and "exposing" does not include any act in which the intimate part is covered by any nontransparent material.

Whoever commits indecent waitering is guilty of a petty misdemeanor.

A liquor licensee or his lessee or agent who allows indecent waitering on the licensed premises is guilty of a petty misdemeanor and his license may be suspended or revoked pursuant to the provisions of the Liquor Control Act [60-3A-1 NMSA 1978].

History: Laws 1979, ch. 403, § 2; 1981, ch. 41, § 2.
