To increase tourism, a city began sponsoring laser light shows, which proved to be very popular. Several charitable organization
s received permission from the council to sponsor a show and charge admission to raise money to help support their causes. One of them hired a famous laser light artist to give their show. When the artist arrived, he began setting up his lasers for the show. A city official soon stopped him, informing him that he could use only the city's lasers because the city feared that outsiders might use powerful lasers that could cause eye damage to viewers. The artist told the charitable organization that had hired him that the success of his art depends on the power of his lasers and that he could not produce desirable effects using the city's lasers. The charitable organization appealed to the city, but the city held fast to its rule requiring all laser light artists to use the city's lasers. If the charitable organization files an action against the city, how will the court most likely rule
Answer: D. Find for the city, because the rule is a reasonable time, place, and manner restriction.
Explanation:
The city's reasons for the laser rule are reasonable which would mean that the restrictions attached are reasonable as well.
The Court would therefore find for the city in this regard and require that the artist use the city's lasers. The reason the city's restrictions are reasonable is because they aim to protect the safety of human beings and this is prioritized over every other thing.
