Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in California

Topless Gardener

What are the laws around gardening

topless (i'm a woman)? I am not

within view of the public, my

backyard is fully enclosed by an 8'

high fence, the top 4' being lattice

about 60% covered in growth. Not

unless my nighbors made great

efforts to 'check me out' would they

really be able to see me.

But, if they did and called the police,

what would be my best defense?

Can I counter with voyeurism?

Re: Topless Gardener

My best guess is that what you are doing is perfectly legal. You can look up law cases on the subject at the Naturist Society online law library at naturistsociety.com or naturisteducation.org (not suitable for the workplace).
