Summary

The Court granted plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction to stop the City of Fort Collins from enforcing an ordinance that prohibited women from exposing their breasts in public. The Court found that the ordinance likely violated the Equal Protection Clause of the United States Constitution and that the other factors necessary for deciding a motion for a preliminary injunction were in the plaintiffs' favor.
