The story links to SB1736, which makes the entity posting the sign prohibiting licensed carry responsible for the safety and defense of the permit holder and extends to the conduct of other invitees, trespassers, employees, etc. The permit holder can sue for damages and is entitled to reasonable attorney fees, expert witness costs, and other costs necessary to bring the cause of action.
