Zombies in Minnesota have had their day in court, and won. A group dressed up as the undead to protest “mindless” consumerism at a July 2006 festival in Minneapolis were arrested by local police for disorderly conduct, resulting in a two-night stay in jail and one “zombie” having his prosthetic leg taken from him. Claiming they did nothing to break the law, the group sued the city and the police department. They lost their initial trial in district court, then appealed to a federal circuit court and were victorious.
