You ready?

I was born ready. Welcome to advisory opinions. I'm Sarah Sker, that's David French, and today we're doing Lady Law.

That's right.

We will be talking about the laws that affect Ladies, Title IX, included, but not limited, too.

Got some Title VII going on, and it's gonna be fun.

But before we get to that, David,

there was a really interesting Supreme Court argument to kick off this week.

It's the Grants Pass argument about whether and how a city can deal with its homelessness problem.

So Grants Pass, Oregon had a statute on the books currently

enjoined that says that you cannot camp on public property.

And they define camping as anyone sleeping with a

blanket sleeping in your car would count as camping and this case got to the

Supreme Court although there were so many other cases in the Ninth Circuit that

have fed into this case.

It was actually, I thought, difficult at oral argument to pull apart this case

from the knock-on effects of all of the other cases but regardless a lower court

enjoined basically all of grants passes laws dealing with homelessness.

There's about a hundred shelter beds in grants pass,

but they're private shelter beds,

and the shelter in question does not allow pets.

So David, that's the law in grants pass

and it was enjoined very broadly.
