How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “[T]he chief concern which animates the doctrine of prior restraint — the fear of censorship and thought-control — is not raised by the ordinance’s content-neutral regulation of noise.”
- “Injunctions are indeed at the ‘core of the prior restraint doctrine.’ ”
- “where a law sets out primarily to arrest the future speech of a[n individual] as a result of his past conduct, it operates like a censor, and as such violates First Amendment protections against prior restraint of speech”
