Supreme Court ruling shuts down zoning that split family
A 91 year old East Cleveland grandmother, Vez Mante, jailed for five days and fined $25 under a single family zoning rule, wins at the Supreme Court 5 to 4.

Justice Powell writes the Constitution protects extended families beyond the nuclear unit despite personal tragedy and poverty. Mrs Moore says she is thrilled by the ruling and calls it just and fair.
