The Partnership for Downtown St. Louis won a temporary victory against the Lure Nightclub this morning.

Lure is at the center of the controversy about late-night downtown violence. The Partnership has been working to get enough signatures to persuade the city to revoke Lure's liquor license.

Friday, Lure won a temporary restraining order that stopped the Partnership from petitioning.

But this morning, Partnership attorneys argued in court that Lure had not given adequate notice before filing the order.

St. Louis Circuit Judge Mark Neill set aside the restraining order and set a new hearing for tomorrow.

The Partnership sent out a statement moments ago declaring something of a victory:

"The Court dismissed the Petition against the Partnership for Downtown St. Louis and Maggie Campbell, its President and CEO. Therefore, the temporary Restraining Order which was initially issued on Friday has been set aside."

But Lure attorney and former St. Louis Mayor Freeman Bosley, Jr. disagreed.

"It's over for about 24 hours," he said. "They won today. It's one for them and one for us."
