Breaking: The Supreme Court refused to hear a major case on homeless, letting stand a ruling that protects their right to sleep on the sidewalk or in public parks if no other shelter is available.
The Supreme Court refused Monday to hear a major case on homeless, letting stand a ruling that protects their right to sleep on the sidewalk or in public parks if no other shelter is available.
Lawyers for the homeless had argued it was cruel and wrong to punish people who have nowhere else to sleep at night. They won a major victory last year when the They said the “creation of a de facto constitutional right to live on sidewalks and in parks will cripple the ability of more than 1,600 municipalities in the 9th Circuit to maintain the health and safety of their communities,”“Nothing in the Constitution...requires cities to surrender their streets, sidewalks, parks, riverbeds, and other public areas to vast encampments.” The appeal was filed by Theane Evangelis and Ted Olson, partners at Gibson Dunn in Los Angeles.
The 9th Circuit agreed last year and ruled the city may not enforce ordinances that “criminalize the simple act of sleeping outside on public property.”
