John Baker and Kate Swenson recently taught an American Planning Association webinar panel on Holiday Decorations, Public Property, and the Law. Public holiday displays, as well as government regulation of private displays, can result in litigation. Is the government entity unconstitutionally interfering with the free exercise of religion or unconstitutionally endorsing religion? The presentation provided guidance for creating a fair and constitutional municipal strategy to address legal issues that arise during the holiday season. Contact John or Kate for more information about Greene Espel’s government and constitutional litigation practice.
