THE CITY OF ALBUQUERQUE WAS WRONG IN FINING THE GUILD CINEMA IN NOB HILL FOR HOLDING AN ADULT FILM FESTIVAL. THAT WAS THE RULING THURSDAY FROM THE STATE SUPREME COURT.
THE FESTIVAL CALLED "PORNOTOPIA" TOOK PLACE AT THE GUILD IN 2007 AND 2008…BUT THE CITY THEN CITED THE THEATER FOR BREAKING THE ADULT AMUSEMENT ORDINANCE, BASED ON ZONING ISSUES. THE HIGH COURT RULED THAT SINCE THE THEATER ONLY OCCASIONALLY FEATURED ADULT ENTERTAINMENT FOR THE FESTIVAL, THE ORDINANCE DID NOT APPLY.
