Can someone help me interpret this language?

(g) “Premises” means a permanent or temporary place of assembly, other than a residence, including, but not limited to, any of the following:
(i) A meeting hall, meeting room, or conference room.
...
(h) “Residence” means a permanent or temporary place of dwelling, including, but not limited to, any of the following:
(i) A house, apartment, condominium, or mobile home.
...


So as I understand it, if something is a premise, then it can't be a residence. Therefore, if something is a residence, it can't also be a premise.

Am I correct?

Correct.

Whatever you're doing this for sounds miserable.

In common law jurisdictions it depends upon the facts & circumstances of your case as well as upon how case law has interpreted or interprets the situation under the statutory language.

P.S. It's "premises", not "premise".
