Existing law provides immunity to a food facility that donates edible food for any damage or injury resulting from the consumption of the donated food, and to any nonprofit charitable organization or food bank that receives and distributes edible food for any injury or death due to the food, except as specified. This bill would limit the liability of a nonprofit charitable organization, or participating licensed optometrist, ophthalmologist, or volunteer working with a nonprofit charitable organization for any damage or injury resulting from the provision of vision screening and, if applicable, the provision of donated or recycled eyeglasses, if specified conditions are met. The bill would make the limitation of liability inapplicable if an action is brought by an officer of a state or local government pursuant to state or local law or if the conduct of the nonprofit charitable organization, optometrist, ophthalmologist, or volunteer includes specified types of misconduct.
