The appeal had been filed in Denvers 10th District Court of Appeals. Roys ordinance sought to ban the showing of indecent material on cable television shown in Roy City. Community Television of Utah, a cable television firm operating in Roy and other Utah cities, filed suit against the ordinance. Last December, Federal District Judge Bruce Jenkins ruled the ordinance unconstitutional. In reference to Roys reason for withdrawing its appeal, the release said: The question is now a state question and the legal battle should be waged by the state. The release notes that the Utah Legislature recently approved Senate Bill 309. This legislation is similar to Roys cable ordinance, but is based on state statutes. According to the release, Roy will support the state by providing any briefs and other material... helpful to successful, final resolution of the issue. Other reasons cited for withdrawing the appeal were financial implications, burdening of the courts, and duplication of effort by Roy and the state. n Roy City Attorney Roger said the Roy City Council received a written affidavit from David Wilkinson, Utah attorney general, promising the state would appeal if the Federal District Court renders a ROY one-pag- Dut-so- r ly QSDimr: negative opinion on its cable legislation.
