Petitioning in front of stores
Petitioning in front of stores Q: My group is being told by Target, Sam’s Club, and other stores that we are not allowed to circulate a petition in front of their stores. Doesn’t that violate our right to get an initiative on the ballot? What are our rights? A: The California Supreme Court has held that the California Constitution protects petitioning and signature-gathering activity at large shopping malls. Robins v. Pruneyard Shopping Center, 23 Cal.
