A man asks for handouts at Memorial Road and May Avenue on Jan. 6, 2016, the last day before a city ordinance made panhandling on the medians in Oklahoma City illegal. The city council voted 5-4 Tuesday to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to review the controversial ordinance, which was struck down by a three-judge panel of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver.
