Summary

The state Court of Appeals ruled in favor of a couple in a legal battle with the state Fish and Wildlife Department, ordering authorities to take more measures to protect their property from the activities of nude sunbathers on Sauvie Island near Portland. The couple's eight-year fight against the department's designation of a nearby beach as "clothing optional" was successful, leading to an injunction for the agency to establish a buffer with vegetation and improve enforcement efforts.
