U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said the landmark ruling in Robinson v. California 'wrongly decided.'
Justice Clarence Thomas wants the U.S. Supreme Court to 'dispose' of a landmark ruling from more than 60 years ago.The Supreme Court issued a ruling Friday in City of Grants Pass, Oregon, v. Gloria Johnson, a major case involving homelessness that is likely to have significant impact on major U.S. cities on the West Coast.
'Because laws like these do not criminalize mere status, Robinson is not implicated,' the court found.But in a dissenting opinion, Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued that the majority's understanding of Robinson 'is plainly wrong.''The Court's misstep today is confined to its application of Robinson. It is quite possible, indeed likely, that these and similar ordinances will face more days in court,' Sotomayor wrote.
