United States Sixth Circuit

In a First Amendment challenge to a city's adult business zoning ordinances, the District Court's order granting partial summary judgment to both parties is affirmed in part, where the ordinances were content-neutral and facially constitutional; but reversed in part, where, once the ordinances were declared unconstitutional as applied to Plaintiff, Plaintiff became entitled to use its property for any lawful purpose.
