Flagstaff City Council got an update on how to dance the fine line on determining if a person is being disruptive to a public meeting or just an annoying speaker Thursday.
Marianne Sullivan, the senior assistant to the city attorney, gave Council a presentation on the 2013 case Acosta v. City of Costa Mesa ruling by the Ninth Circuit of the U.S. Court of Appeals.
The case is about a man who was removed from a Costa Mesa City Council meeting in 2006 after he refused to leave the podium. He was later arrested for causing a disturbance outside of the council chambers.
