Federal Judge Strikes Down Daytona Beach Nudity Law

POSTED: 9:53 pm EST January 21, 2006

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- A federal judge has struck down this city's anti-nudity laws, saying they are unconstitutional.

U.S. District Judge John Antoon decided Friday that Daytona Beach's laws prohibiting public nudity, and nudity in places that sell alcohol, violate the first and 14th amendments.

Daytona Beach also failed to prove its claim that adult nightclubs create secondary negative impacts on levels of crime, prostitution and illegal drug activity in neighborhoods, Antoon said in his ruling.

"We won on every single issue," said Daniel Aaronson, a Fort Lauderdale attorney representing Lollipops Gentleman's Club in its federal lawsuit.

No guessing, no fuss, what you see is what you get. Man, this will surely put a crimp in beer sales.
