| Roberts Court extends line of permissive First Amendment rulings in video game case | Top |
| The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday struck down in no uncertain terms a 2005 California law barring the sale of violent video games to minors. No matter how vile video games can be, Justice Antonin Scalia said for a 7-2 majority, "disgust is not a valid basis for restricting expression." | |
| Sharply divided Court strikes down Arizona campaign-finance law | Top |
| A 5-4 Supreme Court on Monday held that Arizona's public financing system for state elections violates the First Amendment because it "substantially burdens" political speech not only by privately financed candidates but also by independent expenditure groups. | |
| Jones Day Wins High Court Ruling for Goodyear Limiting Jurisdiction over Foreign Defendants | Top |
| The U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Monday that three foreign subsidiaries of Goodyear Tire & Rubber can't be sued in North Carolina state court over an accident in France that stemmed from an alleged tire defect. | |
| Blagojevich verdict is a win for U.S. Attorney Fitzgerald | Top |
| The prosecution of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich hasn't been an easy one for U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald -- so Monday's verdict finding Blagojevich guilty on 17 counts, after a second trial, may give Fitzgerald some measure of validation for his handling of the case. | |
