Coates V. Cincinnati
''Coates v. City of Cincinnati'', 402 U.S. 611 (1971), is a United States Supreme Court case in which the Court held that a local city ordinance that made it a criminal offense for three or more persons to assemble on a sidewalk and "annoy" any passersby was unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. Background In 1956 Cincinnati, Ohio passed an ordinance which provided that: Dennis Coates participated in a protest along with four other unnamed students, all of whom were convicted of violating the city ordinance by conducting themselves in an 'annoying manner.' Coates appealed to the Ohio Supreme Court, alleging that the ordinance and his conviction violated the First and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution. Relying on Cameron v. Johnson, a Mississippi anti-picketing case, the Ohio Supreme court found that "annoying" was not unconstitutionally vague and affirmed Coates' conviction. However, this decision was overturned in the divided United States Supreme ...

Facial Challenge
In U.S. constitutional law, a facial challenge is a challenge to a statute in which the plaintiff alleges that the legislation is always unconstitutional, and therefore void. It is contrasted with an as-applied challenge, which alleges that a particular application of a statute is unconstitutional. If a facial challenge is successful, a court will declare the statute in question facially invalid, which has the effect of striking it down entirely. This contrasts with a successful as-applied challenge, which will result in a court narrowing the circumstances in which the statute may constitutionally be applied without striking it down. In some cases—e.g., ''Gonzales v. Carhart'' or '' Crawford v. Marion County Election Board'', a facial challenge has been rejected with either the court or concurring Justices intimating that the upheld statute might be vulnerable to an as-applied challenge. In First Amendment cases, another type of facial challenge is enunciated in the overbreadth ...

History Of Cincinnati
Cincinnati began with the settlement of Columbia-Tusculum, Cincinnati, Columbia, #Losantiville, Losantiville, and North Bend, Ohio, North Bend in the Northwest Territory of the United States beginning in late December 1788. The following year Fort Washington (Ohio), Fort Washington, named for George Washington, was established to protect the settlers. It was chartered as a town in 1802, and then incorporated as a city in 1819, when it was first called "Queen of the West".

It had 30 warehouses to supply military and civilian travelers — and had hotels, restaurants and taverns to meet their lodging and dining needs. Cincinnati became the sixth largest city in the United States, with a population of 115,435, by 1850. Before the American Civil War, Civil War, it was an important stop on the Underground Railroad.

Daytona Beach Morning Journal
''The Daytona Beach News-Journal'' is a Florida daily newspaper serving Volusia and Flagler Counties. It grew from the ''Halifax Journal'', which was started in 1883.

The newspaper began its online services in 1994. Copies are sold at $2 daily or $3 Sundays/Thanksgiving Day. Prices are higher outside Flagler, Volusia and adjacent counties.

Advertisers also paid in advance for the first three months. The first issue was scheduled for release on February 1, ...
