It begins by looking at social and constitutional issues generated by sexually oriented businesses, followed by a discussion of legal bases for successful regulating and two permissive forms of regulation (zoning and licensing). Nine key points in evaluating regulations of sexually oriented businesses are listed, followed by a sampling of five recent cases (from Connecticut, Kentucky and Utah).
