However, the general ban against smoking passed by voters stands and
violators are only subject to civil penalties.

A law without teeth is hardly a law

It's 99 percent of the lawyers who give the rest a bad reputation!!!

As far as I know, no state has criminal penalties for smoking. Yet.

---What do you mean? What are "civil penalties?"

Scot

Civil penalties typically means financial penalties. As I read this,
it means the violators cannot be sent to jail, but they can be fined.
