Ino Ino, Inc. v. City of Bellevue
937 P.2d 154 | Washington Supreme Court | 1997
Holding Summary
Washington's adult cabaret ordinance provisions regulating distance, lighting, and hours are constitutional time-place-manner restrictions, but the 14-day manager licensing delay without temporary licenses constitutes an unconstitutional prior restraint.
The 14-day delay in issuing a manager's license suppresses future expression.
