Description

Appellants' claim for injunctive and monetary relief under 42 U.S.C. Â§Â§ 1983, 1985(2) and 1985(3) were dismissed by the trial court for failure to state a cause of action pursuant to Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6). The court also awarded attorney's fees to the prevailing defendants. The questions presented by this appeal are: (1) whether allegations that the defendants conspired to eliminate nude dancing in the plaintiffs' nightclubs by interfering in various municipal administrative proceedings state a cause of action when neither the plaintiffs' expressive activities nor business have been interrupted; and (2) whether the trial court abused its discretion in awarding attorney's fees to the defendants.
