Supreme Court to Decide on Rhode Island Price Advertising Ban
The Supreme Court will rule whether states may ban liquor price advertising after Rhode Island enforced a 1956 prohibition. A Johnston 44 Liquormart Inc and People’s Super Liquor Stores suit argue the ban limits commercial speech. The 1st Circuit upheld the ban as a permissible restriction. In other actions the court let stand a Michigan high school portrait case and declined to reinstate a domestic violence award.
