Housing And Homelessness,Supreme Court,Idaho,California
Washington (CNN)The Supreme Court on Monday let stand a lower court opinion that struck down a Boise, Idaho, law aimed at the homeless that regulates camping and sleeping in public spaces.
In an unsigned order with no noted dissents, the court declined to take up Boise's appeal to reinstate its law allowing officers to ticket individuals sleeping and camping on sidewalks and parks.
The city argued the ordinance was necessary to "ensure that these areas remain safe, accessible and sanitary."
