Abstract
In 44 Liquormart, Inc. v. Rhode Island, two licensed liquor retailers brought suit against the Rhode Island Liquor Control Administrator to challenge the First Amendment validity of state statutes that banned the price advertising of alcoholic beverages. In a unanimous decision, the United States Supreme Court overturned the ban, a judgment which may render similar restrictions unconstitutional.
