: Breaking Legal NewsAppeals judges back Los Angeles billboard ban
By (Breaking Legal News)
A panel of judges has decided that the city of Los Angeles did not violate billboard companies' constitutional rights when it enacted a ban on outdoor ads.
The ruling this week by the 9th District Court of Appeals reverses a federal judge's 2008 decision that exceptions to the ban raised free speech concerns because they gave city officials too much leeway in deciding which signs to allow.
The appeals' court judges also vacated a contempt order against the city that was issued after it issued citations against outdoor advertising company World Wide Rush, one of the companies that challenged the sign ban.
Messages left with World Wide Rush's attorney and the Los Angeles city attorney's office were not immediately returned.
