State Ex Rel. Rimer v. City of Miami Beach
Supreme Court of Florida · Decided October 11, 1946 · Chapman, Terrell, Buford, Adams
27 So. 2d 524; 158 Fla. 33; 1946 Fla. LEXIS 462 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

State Ex Rel. Rimer v. City of Miami Beach

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

Judgment quashing alternative writ of mandamus was entered in a suit where mandamus was sought to coerce the municipal authorities to issue a liquor dealers permit to relator to conduct a package house business within a certain area where such business is prohibited by zoning ordinance.

The contention is that the ordinance is invalid because it permits the sale of beer and wine in this zone and prohibits the sale of hard liquors therein, and, therefore, constitutes an arbitrary, unreasonable and unlawful discrimination.

*34 We cannot agree with such contention and, therefore, the judgmént is affirmed.

Affirmed.

CHAPMAN, C. J., TERRELL, BUFORD and ADAMS, JJ., concur.
