Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• stating that a state has “an interest in ensuring that its classification and notification system is both fair and accurate ... [and has no interest] in making erroneous classifications and overbroad notifications”
• requiring notice and hearing prior to classification higher than level one, but no hearing required before dissemination to law enforcement
• discussing registration requirements, which “obviously encroach on the liberty of convicted sex offenders, and, therefore, [cause them to] suffer a tangible impairment of a right in addition to mere harm to reputation”
