RI Auto Dealer Sunday Closing Law Upheld

In Lynch v. Autoplex, C.A., 2006 R.I. Super. LEXIS 98 (RI Super., July 25, 2006), a Rhode Island trial court held that the state's Sunday Motor Vehicle Law does not violate the Establishment Clause. The law (RIGL 31-5-19) requires auto dealerships to remained closed on Sundays.
