Plaintiff-Appellant Joseph Cachia ("Cachia") appeals an order of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida granting dismissal in favor of Defendant-Appellee Islamorada, Village of Islands ("Islamorada"). Cachia challenges an Islamorada zoning ordinance on the grounds that its "formula restaurant" provisions violate the Dormant Commerce Clause.
