San Francisco Nudity Ban -

Update on the San Francisco Nudity Prohibition

San Francisco Nudity Prohibition - As expected, a small amount of naturists re-filed a fed civil
rights litigation this past Friday. These people are challenging the city of San Francisco's
recent ban on public nudity.
The nude activists state the new law violates their right of freedom of speech. They go to
clarify that law enforcement has supposedly demanded the ban against these people
selectively. They claim that they have been targeted even when they get naked for political
protest while other individuals who participate in distinct nude proceedings go unscathed.
As of February new offenders may be fined up to $100.
A previous type of the legal action was dismissed on January 29 by U .S . Judge Chen
claimed that nudity in and of itself wasn't guarded by freedom of speech language since it "is
not inherently expressive."
Nonetheless, Judge Chen stated that the activists may file an amended suit after the law took
effect If they consider that the law was applied against them in a discriminatory manner.
The amended suit adds a 5th plaintiff, Russell "Trey" Allen, to the previously 4 plaintiffs
(Mitch Hightower, George Davis, Russell Mills as well as Oxane "Gypsy" Taub ). Body Image
Struggles and Eating Disorders of these people reside in San Francisco with the exception of
Taub, living in Berkeley.
Friday was the deadline for submitting an amended suit.
The new law suit requests a judgment proclaiming that the recently enacted laws / law is
unconstitutional if carried out against the plaintiffs. They'd also requested an interim
restraining order and preceding injunction preventing enforcement of regulations. No
hearings have been set as of yet.
Matt Dorsey on behalf of the City Attorney Dennis Herrera stated: "We Are still in the process
of reviewing this, and it'd be premature for us to comment substantively."
Dorsey claimed the city's attorneys have until March 29 to file a response to the newest legal
action or ask for its termination.

detained while participating in a bare dance show that was put together by the plaintiffs on
February 27.
The suit also argues that none of the plaintiffs (or some of the other bare attendees for that
matter) were arrested by the police during the February 17 motion picture filming. It also
makes a point that no one was arrested during a March 9 unclothed bicycle ride put together
by some other parties.
"Defendants have taken every opportunity to strike at plaintiffs at events they arrange, while
seemingly being struck by a sense of obliviousness when it comes to events arranged by
others who aren't part of this litigation," the amended legal action professes.
