More Smoking Ban Litigation

In addition to the American Cancer Society challenge to the regulations exempting private clubs from Ohio's smoking prohibition that was filed in Franklin County Common Pleas Court, there are two other pending challenges to the exemption. The Buckeye Liquor Permit Holders Association has a suit pending in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court (A 0610614), and the Ohio Licensed Beverage Association recently filed suit in Franklin County Common Pleas Court (07 CV 005103). Both groups claim that the prive club exemption violets their equal protection rights.
