See the below note from Tom on the OSJ legal team

At 3 am 8 police officers (on overtime?) and 5 police cars arrested and 
transported to county jail the protestors outside city hall in San Jose

One person in a wheel chair was cited and released the others were all 
taken to jail in apparent violation of PC 853.6(i)

More importantly all of their belongings were taken by the Police. 
  Because of cut backs the SJPD property room is not open until Tuesday

IF the individuals taken to the jail are not released from the jail ( 
and the DOC does a better job on releasing felons than they do for those 
in on a misdemeanor) the they will have to stay in custody until at 
least Monday and probably Tuesday.

This was clearly a coordinated well thought out plan.  The day was 
picked (Friday morning) on purpose and the confiscation of the food , 
money , tents, was no accident.

Please remember that the city has on at least two other occasions 
allowed people to "occupy" the city plaza area where they have been in 
agreement with the content of the protestors speech.  Here since the 
city was threatened by the content of the speech the city has chosen to 
selectively enforce the ordinance.

theordinance itself is probably unconstitutional because it does not 
contain a process for granting a waiver of the fees associated with free 
speech rights
