Under what circumstances can a customer showing signs of intoxication remain on licensed premises?

A customer showing signs of intoxication may be allowed to remain on licensed premises if they are not posing a risk to themselves or others, and if their behavior is manageable. Additionally, the establishment may choose to allow them to stay if they are waiting for a safe means of transportation home. However, it is ultimately at the discretion of the staff to ensure the safety of all patrons and comply with local laws regarding serving alcohol.
