Abstract:  Let $(L,\wedge,\vee)$ be a finite lattice with a least element 0. $\mathbb{A} G(L)$ is an annihilating-ideal graph of $L$ in which the vertex set is the set of all nontrivial ideals of $L$, and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and only if $I \wedge J=0$. We completely characterize all finite lattices $L$ whose line graph associated to an annihilating-ideal graph, denoted by $\mathfrak{L}(\mathbb{A} G(L))$, is a planar or projective graph.
