Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida
City Ordinance to Lock Doors & Windows
Is it constitutional for a municipality to
require homeowners to lock doors and
windows when away from home? I
realize it is a good practice, but I don't
need big brother overlording me (and
giving me a citation).

Re: City Ordinance to Lock Doors & Windows
Sounds suspicious, but one thing is for sure -- it would be cheaper to lock your doors (which is smart, after all) than it would be to spend the money to mount a constitutional challenge to the ordinance.
