How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • finding an ordinance restricting public gatherings to be unlawfully content-based because it was “directed only to communicative activity, rather than to all activity, and its applicability turn[ed] solely on the subject matter of what a speaker might say”
  • A content-neutral ordinance “applies equally to all, and not just to those with a particular message or subject matter in mind.”
  • “We readily conclude that the indemnification provision in the ... [ordinance fails, to provide adequate standards [for the county attorney to follow].”
  • A content-neutral ordinance “applies equally to all, and not just to those with a particular message or subject matter in mind.”
  • “[T]ime, place, and manner regulations must contain narrowly drawn, reasonable and definite standards, to guide the official’s decision and render it subject to effective judicial review.”
  • “Even a facially content-neutral time, place, and manner regulation may not vest public officials with unbridled discretion over permitting decisions.”
