Jones operated a local movie theatre in a small town that had fallen on hard times. As a last ditch effort to attract customers, he decided to show pornographic movies. From the week the change was made, the theatre had to turn away customers on a regular basis. The local town council was quite upset, however, especially since a number of them represented a conservative and religious constituency. They decided to take away the licence of the theatre but were quickly informed that they did not have the power to do that. They then decided to increase the licence fee from the regular $50 per year to $15,000 per year. Jones was notified of the fact that this course of action was being considered, and he was given a chance to appear before the council to state his case. He did so, but the council decided to go ahead with the decision in any case. This, of course, would force Jones out of business, and so Jones, after exhausting any local remedies and appeals, took the matter to court. Which of the following accurately indicates the legal position of the parties?

A) Jones will be successful and will seek an order of mandamus.

D) Jones will be successful and will seek an order of prohibition.
E) Jones will not be successful since the decision has been made and he has exhausted his remedies.
