Mediation between Moore and three transgender women who were kicked out of the club is tentatively set for Friday, Sept. 19.

The ban prompted protests outside the club on Fitzhugh Avenue.

While Moore did not respond to requests for comment, Celeste Williams, one of the three women who were barred from Crews Inn, is happy a mediation date has been set.

"I am glad it is hopefully coming to an end," she said. "This has been tough, but it was worth it to stand up against him."

Moore has already said that everyone is welcome back in his bar — a claim that Williams and Tramp aren't so quick to believe.
