Opinion
WUNDERLICH, J.
The respondent superior court has declared unconstitutional, under the First Amendment, a San Jose city ordinance which outlaws targeted picketing within 300 feet of a targeted residence. The City of San Jose seeks expedited review of this decision by writ of mandate. Although the ordinance does not apply specifically to anti-abortion protesters, the present controversy arose when real parties in interest were charged with anti-abortion picketing within the proscribed distance of the homes of staff members of a clinic where abortions are performed.
