Court Nixes Private Club Smoking

06/05/2008 06:19:25

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- No smoking is still the rule for Ohio's private clubs.

The vote was 4-3 in the State Supreme Court.

That means there will be no reversal of an Appeals Court decision that blocks new rules that would exempt private clubs from the state's indoor smoking ban.

Anti-smoking groups are pleased and so is the Ohio Licensed Beverage Association, which was afraid such an exemption would give private clubs an unfair advantage over public bars and restaurants.
