Description

This is an original proceeding in which the relators, City of Fort Worth, its governing Council and Secretary, sought a writ of mandamus ordering the Honorable Harold Craik, District Judge of Tarrant County, Texas, 153rd Judicial District, to vacate a restraining order issued by him on the 10th day of January 1967 at the instance of The National Foundation, a corporation. This order restrained the City of Fort Worth from enforcing the penal provisions of an ordinance which proscribed (in the absence of a proper permit) the solicitation of funds "on the streets, in any office building or other public or private place, by house to house canvass or by telephone within the city" upon the representation that such funds are to be used for a charitable, educational, religious, patriotic or philanthropic purpose. The ordinance exempted certain organizations, but The National Foundation, which conducts an annual March of Dimes, is not one of these. The Charitable Solicitation Commission, a municipal administrative agency created by ordinance, refused to approve a permit for the solicitation of funds by The National Foundation because the expected costs of solicitation were deemed excessive in relation to the expected gross amount to be collected. The action of the Commission was sustained by the City Council.
