Oral Argument

  Reed v. Town of Gilbert 

Summary  –  Reed v. Town of Gilbert involves a Church’s First and Fourteenth Amendment challenges to the Town of Gilbert’s sign code.  The Town’s code regulates signs on the basis of their content, and imposes far stricter restrictions in relation to size, duration, number, and location on the Church’s signs advertising its services than it does on other, similar signs, like political and ideological signs.  The primary question in the case is whether this differential treatment of similar signs violates the Church’s First Amendment rights.
