Billings massage therapists sue city over ordinance aimed at stopping human trafficking
A group of Billings massage therapists sued the city Wednesday in federal court to overturn an ordinance aimed stopping human trafficking.
Attorneys for the four plaintiffs- massage therapists Theresa Vondra, Donna Podolak, Lynda Larvie and client Adam Poulos- argued in court documents that the April 2021 ordinance violated their clients’ Fourth Amendment rights protecting against search and seizure.
