appearances with Johnny Carson, Valorie
Geraldo Rivera and Joan Rivers.
But on Thursday she was
barred by her lawyer and sister,
Valorie Wells Davenport, from
talking to reporters.
She was ticketed for allegedly at The Summit during the July 7
violating a city ordinance that
bars members of one sex from us-
ing a public restroom designed
for members of the opposite sex
in a manner calculated to cause a
disturbance.
She faces up to a $200 fine if
convicted of the misdemeanor.
Some states, including New
York and Virginia, have approved
so-called potty parity regulations
that give women as many or more
toilets than men to compensate
for the extra time that women can
take.
Davenport said her client’s de-
fense in the trial that was expect-
ed to last at least two days would
be based on a clause in the law
saying the person intended to
cause a disturbance.
“She was just trying to go to
the bathroom, not cause a dis-
turbance,” Davenport said.
