HOMELESS COURT IN SAN DIEGO COUNTY, COLUMBIA SOUTH CAROLINA, LITTLE ROCK, MILWAUKEE

"Many criminal charges against the homeless stem from their homelessness: loitering, sleeping on the sidewalks, drinking or urinating in public. Once cited, they don’t have a mailing address to receive summonses if they fail to pay the fine. That means a single infraction can often mushroom into multiple summonses, resulting in an inability to secure a job and housing."

35 such courts — half of them in California — have sprung up, including in Columbia, S.C., Little Rock, Ark., and Milwaukee."

HOMELESS COURT LOS ANGELES COUNTY IS ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR BLOGPOSTS WE HAVE! So we thought we'd look to see if there are HOMELESS COURTS IN OTHER CITIES AND THERE ARE!
