Supreme Court upholds smoking ban
The long awaited ruling on the smoking ban has been issued. In Flamingo Paradise Gaming v. Attorney General, the Nevada Supreme Court affirmed the Judge Herndon's ruling that struck the criminal provisions but allowed the civil enforcement provisions to stand.
The Court did note that the "NCIAA contains numerous defects that may potentially be subject to as-applied challenges."
I am a bit sad at the loss, but hardly surprised. And of course, we did successfully defend that portion striking the criminal penalties.
