Thompson v. St. Anthony Leased Housing Associates II, LP – Supreme Court of Minnesota holds that residential tenant’s allegations that landlord charged her rent in excess of limits established by Minnesota Bond Allocation Act were sufficient to plead injury-in-fact, as necessary for standing to bring claim against landlord for breach of contract, even though Act did not provide tenant with private right of action to enforce its rent limits.
And finally, Florence’s Only Fully Nude David is brought to us this week by Club Madonna Inc. v. City of Miami Beach, in which the City of Miami Beach enacted regulations concerning its “only fully nude strip club.” What we find delightfully bewildering is the thought process behind the naming of the establishment in question. Is this a reference to the beloved pop icon? If so, fine, but we’ll see your pop icon and raise you a millennium of – you know – actual iconography. Can someone PLEASE explain to us what exactly it is about a painting of a beatific mom and her bizarrely unrealistic new-born that puts one in the mood to visit Miami’s only fully nude strip club? On second thought, if that connection IS somehow immediately apparent to you, you are clearly a person from whom we definitely do not want to hear. But thanks for playing.
