A complaint filed by Camelot Banquet Rooms, Inc. and other club operators against the U.S. Small Business Administration, Administrator Jovita Carranza, the United States and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Case No. 2:20-cv-00601-LA, in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, filed April 13, 2020 as Document 1. The plaintiffs, which operate Silk Exotic Gentlemen's Clubs presenting erotic dance entertainment, seek emergency declaratory and injunctive relief against the SBA's use of 13 C.F.R. § 120.110(p) to exclude businesses presenting live performances of a prurient sexual nature from the Paycheck Protection Program. The complaint argues the exclusion conflicts with the CARES Act and violates the First and Fifth Amendments. It asks that lenders stop applying the rule, that the plaintiffs regain their place in the application queue, and damages.
