Several months ago Judge Timothy Volkman issued the following decision in the case of Anna Richardson and Miguel de Leon--after a year of costly legal presentation by the City Attorney's office in an unprecedented injunction proceeding making sleeping downtown an immediate jailing crime for these two. This in a city with no legal shelter for 95% of its homeless population.
