OPINION
Opinion by Justice RICHTER.
In this appeal, we must determine whether the trial judge properly granted Michelle K. Howard’s motion to quash or dismiss the information charging her with violating the “no touch” provision of the Dallas City Code regulating sexually oriented businesses and the conduct of their employees. See Dallas, Tex., Code 41A-18.1(a) (2000). After a de novo review of the order granting the motion, see State v. Moff, 154 S.W.3d 599, 601 (Tex.Crim.App.2004), we conclude the trial judge properly granted the motion and affirm the order.
