Attorneys argued against outright camping bans, stating they disrupt service access, erode trust in law enforcement, and hinder housing and employment opportunities.
Multiple amicus briefs, including those from conservative states and legal groups supporting Grants Pass, were filed in the case, signaling a split in opinions.
Support for the unhoused residents came from entities like the ACLU, California nonprofits, and the American Psychiatric Association, highlighting diverse backing for this cause.
The case is interconnected with another major homelessness ruling, Martin v. Boise, and parties like the Biden administration seek clarity on interpreting lower courts' decisions.
