Questiоn One (One Hоur аnd а Hаlf) After 35 years оf suffering depression, Jan Dorris, thanks to several years of therapy, now understands that the key to alleviating this pain and making possible an authentically lived life that includes the possibility of joy is the recognition that Dorris is non-binary—Dorris does not identify solely as male or female. As experts begin to understand more about sexuality, it has become increasingly evident that individual gender is distributed across a spectrum. Some individuals possess a gender that blends elements of male and female gender, while the gender of others is neither male nor female or none at all. Dorris has told friends and family how important recognition and respect for their sexuality is to Dorris, and most of those close to Dorris understand and afford them respect and support. The same cannot be said for the government of the state of Adams, where Dorris was born and still lives. A year ago, Dorris contacted the Office of Vital Records (OVR), which is charge of state birth certificates, and requested that the state issue Dorris an amended birth certificate recognizing their non-binary gender. It means everything to Dorris to have public recognition of the truth of their nature—there are fewer state documents that are more personal or consequential than one's birth certificate. When news of this request became public, there was a political uproar, in which both the state's governor and the principal legislative leaders declared that both biology and the belief system rooted in thousands of years of Western civilization hold that there are only two genders, male and female. The foundations of our society, including marriage, the raising of children, and our moral framework are threatened by this assault on the true nature of gender. The Adams state legislature, at the demand of the governor, enacted a bill stating that the state recognizes only the male and female gender and forbidding the OVR from issuing any birth certificates that do not identify the individual as male or female. (The statute only allows amendments of birth certificates where there is a court-ordered change of name or an acknowledgement or rescinding of paternity.) Adams is the fifth state to enact such a bill, with six others considering similar bills in this year's legislative session. Dorris is devastated to be treated as a non-person and will sue. The only other ray of hope for Dorris is that U.S. Congressman Stu Alsop, whose district is in an adjacent state that enacted a similar law, has filed a bill that will require all states to both issue amended birth certificates to non-binary individuals submitting court orders validating their gender and explain their duty to do so on the appropriate agency website. While the majority of Adams voters may be conservative, there is a critical mass of economically successful Adams progressives who have worked hard to make a better life, which they understand as building a progressive home that will shelter them from the reactionary views of their fellow Adams residents. The instrument of their deliverance is Oceanside, a large, planned residential development tucked into an attractive beachside corner of Adams. An entrepreneurial real estate developer, recognizing the passion and wealth of the Adams progressive community, built a large residential neighborhood of expensive homes and marketed the development to progressives as a place that they could build a way of life free of the reactionary forces that dominate the rest of the state. The market pitch worked, and over 70% of the homes in Oceanside were bought and are still owned by political progressives. The key to the plan's was the developer's recognition that he could persuade the Adams legislature to establish Oceanside as a special district in which local governance, including the power to impose local taxes, provide local services (such as water, sewer, policing, fire protection, and trash pickup), and enact local regulations within the development area, would be conducted by a seven-member District board of Oceanside residents selected in elections in which only Oceanside property owners are eligible to vote, thus making the election of progressives likely. The legislature, in approving the district, agreed with the developer that the particular nature of the community, including its geographic isolation and its history of completely planned development, allowed for the possibility of creating a culturally unique community, whose special character could only be protected by handing the reins of power only to those with a direct stake in the preservation of the character of the community. Not everyone, of course, is satisfied with these political arrangements. While nearly all Oceanside property owners are so happy with the community that they continue to own and live in their homes, a few property owners have chosen to rent their homes. The tenants are stunned and angry to find that they are ineligible to vote in the elections of the Oceanside board. In addition to the renters, inside the boundaries of the special district, but outside the Oceanside development, are several homeowners who love living in the area but hate not having the right to vote. They and the renters will sue. The Oceanside District Board does, in fact, do its share of regulating—the residents are serious about preserving the community they moved there to find. One of the community's nice touches is its featured "New Urbanist" mix of land uses. The District public library, for example, which is located in the traditional village-like town square, has a restaurant in it so people can grab a bite before or after they browse the library collections. The library, a public entity whose policies are set by the Board, rents the space to a restaurant of its choosing. They chose to establish a new franchise of a local chain that serves the most delicious and popular chicken sandwiches. The Oceanside residents love the food, but despise the politics of the owners of the chain, who unfortunately, in all their restaurants, place, in windows, on walls, and on tables, colorful reminders that a portion of all sales revenue is dedicated by the owners to organizations that support the traditional family and moral responsibility understood in traditional terms. Scores of Oceanside residents have complained to the Board about these disturbing messages. Most people want to keep the restaurant (the food is really good), but don't want their sensibilities gratuitously offended. The Board, in response, while renewing the contract for the library franchise, has passed an ordinance that forbids any restaurant business that leases space and operates in a District-owned building from posting any statements regarding sale proceeds, exempting the company logo or offered special deals, on the windows, walls, or tables of the establishment. This law will allow those who dine at a restaurant in a government-owned building to enjoy their meal without being distracted by irrelevant intrusions of any kind from any quarter. The restaurant, whose owners want to remain, but do not believe they can or should be censored, have sued. You are a law clerk to the federal judge who has been assigned all of these cases. Write a memorandum discussing all the legal issues raised by Dorris's challenge against the birth certificate law; the challenge by the renters and non-Oceanside property owners to the limitation on voting; and the restaurant's challenge to the Board ordinance. Your judge also is interested in the constitutional issues regarding the proposed congressional statute. Make sure to fully explain the arguments for both sustaining and striking down the alleged government actions regarding all of these issues. Please do not discuss any areas of law that were not covered in the course
