Fight Back Against Homeless Camp Demolition: Legal Weapons Available Wednesday 2 PM El Rio Mobile Home Park Rec Hall
Take ‘Em To Court ! Legal Tools for Homeless Resistance
Don’t Wait for Cops to Trash Your Tent & Steal Your Stuff
1st meeting of the Organizing Legal Committee for the Santa Cruz Homeless Union Wednesday, March 6 at 2:00El Rio Mobile Home Park Rec Hall, 2120 N. Pacific.
Attorney Anthony Prince will give information on how to make legal filings, fight tickets and provide safe strategies for interacting with the police. He will also facilitate a discussion on organizing self-represented legal resistance to any “Move-Along!” orders for homeless camps for survival campers without shelter options (i..e. nearly everyone).
A group will be gathering at 1:30 PM Wednesday at the Ross Hero’s Camp and walking to the meeting together as well.
The Rec Hall is the first building on the right as you enter the park which is at the very end of North Pacific Avenue past Lenz Arts.
There will be home-baked cake, bread, cheese and refreshments.
We hope to see you there! Bring a friend—housed or not!
“The panel held that, as long as there is no option of sleeping indoors, the government cannot criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors, on public property, on the false premise they had a choice in the matter.” Martin v. City of Boise (9th Cir. 2018) No. 15-35845
