Barnes v. Glen Theatre, Inc.: The Naked Truth

By Alliance Alert

Barnes v. Glen Theatre, Inc.: The Naked Truth Kathleen T. Gibson, 9 U. Miami Ent. & Sports L.Rev. 201 (2009) "In Barnes, the issue before the Court was whether the application of an Indiana public indecency statute to nude dancing impermissibly infringed upon freedom of speech. The statute defined public indecency, in part, as ?knowingly or intentionally, in a public place: . . . appear ing in a state of nudity. . . .? J.R.'s Kitty Kat Lounge and Glen Theatre, Inc., in separate actions, sought to enjoin the state from enforcing the statute against them as both establishments provided nude dancing as entertainment. Both actions were consolidated on appeal."
