MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

RICHARD E. ROBINSON, Senior District Judge.

THIS MATTER is before the Court on the plaintiffs' application for a preliminary injunction. The plaintiffs seek to enjoin enforcement of L.B.164, a Nebraska statute which in pertinent part limits the number of bingo occasions which can be held in any particular structure or building. See Neb. Rev.Stat. § 9-146. The statute is allegedly unconstitutional.1
