A city judge ruled on Thursday that Oak Ridge, Tenn., authorities were out of line when they issued a citation against Terry for the porcelain commode doubling as a flowerpot on his front lawn, the Knoxville News Sentinel reports.
The city claimed that the toilet qualified as rubbish and that Terry was in violation of local property maintenance codes.
Judge Robert A. McNees III flushed that argument down the drain, however, explaining that the city's understanding of rubbish "is so broad it could apply to most containers and thus over-broad for the purpose of including Mr. Terry's commode."
"That is so awesome,'' Terry said. "I think it's absolutely wonderful for flowerpots everywhere.''
The makeshift garden, which Terry estimates has been on his lawn for eight years, is home to a few plastic chickens, hens, a little bluebird, a shell, a skull and some flowers, although Terry is unsure what variety they are.
"I say it's art, I say it's a flowerpot, I say it's a way to kind of be green and keep stuff out of the landfill," Terry said in an interview before the ruling.
And now that he's won the case, Terry has even bigger plans.
"I might get two toilets and put them beside what you could call my driveway.''
