High court overturns ruling on park as homeless man's address

OSAKA, Japan - Yuji Yamauchi, a homeless man who has lived in a pegged tent in Ogimachi Park in Osaka and received his mail there, faced an Osaka High Court ruling on Jan. 23 which overturned a lower court ruling that a park can be registered as an address of a homeless man. The ward office refused to register the park as his address in March 2004, prompting him to file the lawsuit with the Osaka District Court to demand the local government rescind the decision.
