United States,  x107 F.3d 1328 (9th Cir. 1997). In the interest of clarifying the FCCs enforcement position in light of this ruling, the Office of General Counsel and the Mass Media Bureau are issuing this Public Notice.  S- x-In the Valley Broadcasting decision, the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the district courts  xruling and held that the restrictions on the broadcast of lottery information contained in Title 18 United  x/States Code, Section 1304, and Section 73.1211 of the Commissions Rules, are an "unconstitutional  xinfringement" of the plaintiffs First Amendment rights. The Ninth Circuit denied the Petition for  xRehearing filed in this case by the Department of Justice and the court issued its mandate on September  x4, 1997. The government has until November 24, 1997, to ask the Supreme Court to review the Ninth  xkCircuits ruling in this case. The decision whether to seek Supreme Court review will be made by the Solicitor General of the United States.  xThe district court judgment in this case, now affirmed by the Ninth Circuit, does not enjoin the  xCommission from enforcing Section 73.1211 of the Commissions Rules against persons other than the  xstations that brought this suit. Nevertheless, the Commission will not enforce the ban on the broadcast  xof lottery information against stations licensed to communities in the Ninth Circuit, with the exception of  xthe prohibition on the broadcast of information concerning staterun lotteries. This policy of non xenforcement applies to any such broadcasts which air from September 4, 1997, the date of the mandate,  S- xunless and until such time as the Ninth Circuit Court's decision in Valley Broadcasting is overturned or  xotherwise altered. The Ninth Circuit includes: Alaska, Arizona, California, Guam, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, the Northern Mariana Islands, Oregon, and Washington.  x-We recognize that the Ninth Circuits decision could be read to apply to staterun lotteries. However, such  S!- xan interpretation would conflict with United States v. Edge Broadcasting Co., 509 U.S. 418 (1993), in  xwhich the Supreme Court upheld the prohibition on advertisement of staterun lotteries by stations located in states which do not have such a lottery.  xWe caution broadcasters that they should ensure that the broadcast of information regarding lotteries is not prohibited or otherwise restricted by state law.
