‘Pull ’em up or pay up’ is new law in Mansfield
August 13, 2007
MANSFIELD — “Pull ‘em up or pay up.”
ThatÂ’s Police Chief Don EnglishÂ’s interpretation of a new law that takes effect in Mansfield on Sept. 15
Anyone caught wearing sagging pants who exposes his or her underwear will be subject to a fine of up to $150 plus court costs, or face up to 15 days in jail.
Mansfield aldermen voted unanimously at todayÂ’s 4:30 p.m. meeting to enact the new law.
The law makes it illegal to found in a “state of nudity, or partial nudity, or in any indecent exposure of his or her person or undergarments, or be guilty of any indecent or lewd behavior.”
City attorney Richard Z. Johnson Jr. said he used a similar law in Delcambre as a guideline in creating MansfieldÂ’s ordinance. Several municipalities and parish governments in Louisiana have enacted similar laws in recent months.

I like the Idea and reasoning behind the law but, It seems like it would be awfully easy to say it includes bikini, pastie, low cut tops. Just too much room for it to be overly applied.
While I agree these guys look really stupid, I'm not sure I want this type of a law going on the books, where will it end?
Wow... that must be a fantastic place to live if the most pressing issue the town and police have to deal with is baggy pants.What a jackass move.
Now they need to have a fine for people that wear those stupid, stiff hats and turn them sideways
They would have to arrest my 73 year old dad for sure.......
Feel free to give away your rights one at a time, then sit around stupefied when you don't have any.
yeah wut he said
Looks like the plumbing industry in Louisiana is gonna take a serious hit on this law!!!
Mrs. flying Vee had better stay out of town
