How later courts describe this case
- affirming Seventh Circuit decision invalidating a city ordinance that limited solicitation to the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
- interpreting Renton to have applied the full-form time, place, and manner test even though not explicitly stated in the Renton opinion
- ordinance prohibiting solicitation for purchases of goods, services and printed material after 5 p.m. held not narrow enough because no reason presented why it could not permit solicitation until 9 p.m.
- White, Jr., joined by Rehnquist, C.J., and O’Connor, J., dissenting
