Metro reports that the city’s ban on dancing in bars, restaurants and certain clubs is legal, according to the state appeals court. The law was enacted in the prohibition era. The Gotham West Coast Swing Club filed a lawsuit regarding the city’s 80-year-old Cabaret Law stating it illegally infringed on their right of free expression. The appeals court stated that “recreational dancing is not a form of expression protected by the federal or state constitutions.”
