New York Court of Appeals
The People of the State of New York v. Milton Goodman
November 1, 197231 N.Y.2d 262
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals affirmed the conviction of Milton Goodman, holding that the Village of Ocean Beach's ordinance limiting commercial signs to four square feet is a valid exercise of the police power, is not void for vagueness, and does not violate equal protection. The court also advised that claims of discriminatory enforcement should be raised pre‑trial via a motion to dismiss.
