Vanater v. Village of South Point

How courts have described this case

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

• ‘‘[w]hile [p]it [b]ulls are not the only breed of dog which can be dangerous or vicious, it is reason- able to single out the breed to anticipate and avoid the dangerous aggressiveness which may be undetectable in a[n] [individual] [p]it [b]ull’’
• conclud ing that an ordinance that referred to particular breeds but did not further define them was not unconstitutionally vague, in part because “[a]n ordinary person could easily refer to a dictionary, a dog buyer’s guide or any dog book for guidance and instruction”
