AZ HB2118

Redefines "minor" as any person under the federal minimum age of sale for tobacco products rather than using a specific age reference.

Creates escalating penalties for enterprises that violate tobacco sales laws: first violation requires $500-$750 fine and mandatory educational course; second violation within 36 months adds $1,000-$1,500 fine and 30-day sales prohibition; third violation adds $2,000-$2,500 fine and 90-day prohibition; fourth or subsequent violation adds $3,000-$5,000 fine and one-year prohibition.

Prohibits courts from waiving fines for enterprises committing a second or subsequent violation outside the 36-month tracking period.

Requires at least one owner or manager and one non-managerial employee to attend court-approved tobacco retailer educational courses when ordered by the court.

Applies enterprise penalties only to the specific location where the violation occurred in multi-location businesses.
