PORTSMOUTH, Va. (AP) - An ice cream vendor in Portsmouth who has been fined repeatedly for playing music is challenging the city's regulations that only allow ice cream trucks to use a bell -- and only for up to three seconds.
Claudio Jose Sanchez asked a Portsmouth judge on Friday to dismiss a recent misdemeanor charge. His attorney, Kevin Martingayle, argued in court papers that Portsmouth's prohibition against ice cream trucks playing music is unconstitutional and a restriction on commercial speech.
Chief Circuit Judge Mark Davis gave the city several weeks to respond.
Sanchez drives a truck for Norfolk-based Jumpn' G's Ice Cream. He was convicted three times this summer in Portsmouth General District Court for the illegal use of noise from an ice cream truck.
Police have been enforcing the city's ice cream vendor regulations since a 10-year-old girl was hit by a car as she walked away from an illegally parked ice cream truck in May. The girl suffered cuts and bruises.
