Heading: Prior Restraint/Prompt Judicial Review

Text: Plaintiffs argue that the Ordinance is invalid because it does not demand prompt judicial review of a decision to deny, suspend, or revoke a license. Plaintiffs also concede that this argument is foreclosed by our decision in Graff v. City of Chicago, but nevertheless ask us to reconsider. 9 F.3d 1309 (7th Cir. 1993) (en banc) (holding that common law review of a licensing decision was sufficient). We see no reason to reconsider Graff on this record, especially where the Ordinance requires continuous operation under a provisional license until the culmination of judicial review. See also City of Littleton v. Z.J. Gifts D-4, L.L.C., 541 U.S. 774, 781-84 (2004) (explaining that ordinary judicial review of a licensing decision was sufficient where the ordinance was content neutral and only conditioned operation on neutral, nondiscriminatory criteria).
