Honolulu Faces Another Free Speech Lawsuit Related to Stored Property Law
“Occupy Honolulu isn’t the only one suing the City and County of Honolulu over infringement of free speech rights.
On Tuesday, North Shore resident Choon James filed a lawsuit against the city for tearing down signs she had put up on her property to protest a municipal eminent domain case she’s involved in.
What’s interesting is that both James and (de)Occupy’s complaints involve the same law — the city’s stored property ordinance. This controversial law allows city officials to seize personal belongings from public property after providing 24 hour notice.”
