Abstract:
Restrictions on public smoking have become an issue in North Carolina, following the release of information about the harmful effects of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. North Carolina courts have not yet been asked to decide the validity of smoking regulations. However, several cities have enacted smoking ordinances, relying on their delegated police power from the state.
