Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Sherry Ragan , Provo, for Appellant.

Lisa Crawford and Douglas J. Thompson , Provo, for Appellee.

Before Judges VOROS, ORME, and THORNE.


OPINION

THORNE, Judge:

¶ 1 The State charged eighteen-year-old Xavier Morrison with supplying alcohol to a minor after Morrison admitted to sharing some of his beer with other minors at a party. Upon Morrison's motion, the district court dismissed the charge, concluding that the charge would work an "absurd result" in light of Morrison's own minority. See generally In re Z.C., 2007 UT 54, ¶¶ 11-24, 165 P.3d 1206
