The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will once again consider an ordinance requiring an “occupancy license” for prospective renters in a Dallas suburb.
The housing ordinance also criminalized making false statements on an occupancy license application, occupying rental housing with a license, and knowingly permitting a person to occupy a rental unit without a valid license.
That wish was granted this week. The Fifth Circuit announced on Tuesday that a majority of the court had voted in favor of rehearing. The oral argument date and briefing schedule have not yet been assigned.
