### <mark style="color:orange;">C16 -</mark> <mark style="color:orange;"></mark><mark style="color:orange;">**Face Concealment**</mark>

An individual may not be present on foot and wear facial concealment in public or on the property of San Andreas. Exemptions apply when facial concealment is worn during masquerades and other entertainment events that are deemed appropriate by the city (such as Halloween), or where there's reasonable cause e.g. motorcycle protection or medical reasons (with documentation from a registered medical practitioner).

* Private Property owners have the right to refuse and/or allow attendants who wear facial concealment within the boundaries of their property.
* Individuals who defy a lawful request to remove and/or keep their facial concealment off or fail to identify themselves after removing the face covering are liable for [GM09 - Failure to Comply / Identify](/last-mile-rp/emergency-services-info/san-andreas-state-laws-and-regulations/penal-code/gm-general-misdemeanors/gm09-failure-to-comply-identify.md) and a subsequent upgrade of [C16 - Face Concealment](/last-mile-rp/emergency-services-info/san-andreas-state-laws-and-regulations/penal-code/c-citations/c16-face-concealment.md) to [GM16 - Face Concealment (b)](/last-mile-rp/emergency-services-info/san-andreas-state-laws-and-regulations/penal-code/gm-general-misdemeanors/gm16-face-concealment-b.md).
* [GM16 - Face Concealment (b)](/last-mile-rp/emergency-services-info/san-andreas-state-laws-and-regulations/penal-code/gm-general-misdemeanors/gm16-face-concealment-b.md) will apply instead of [C16 - Face Concealment](/last-mile-rp/emergency-services-info/san-andreas-state-laws-and-regulations/penal-code/c-citations/c16-face-concealment.md) for individuals who wear facial concealment in relation to other criminal acts.
