United States Third Circuit


RUIZ v. NEW GARDEN TOWNSHIP, 02-4434

The district court's order to enjoin defendant from enforcing a zoning enforcement notice, that would have resulted in the eviction of plaintiffs, is reversed because plaintiffs' leases were not a protectible property interest, and, as a result, they were not afforded a constitutional guarantee of notice before their leases were terminated.
