On Friday, the Supreme Court will hear the soi-disant Nuremberg Files case, a contentious 1st Amendment dispute over a virulent anti abortion web site containing the names, addresses, and family information on abortion doctors. Lawyers are asking the justices to reverse a May 2002 11-judge en banc ruling of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that upheld a 1999 trial verdict against the group. A Portland, Ore., jury found that the Nuremberg Files web site and a pair of "Wanted" posters listing abortion providers amounted to threats and intimidation that violated RICO and the Hobbs Act, as well as the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act. The justices will meet to decide whether to grant review in dozens of cases, including American Coalition of Life Activists v. Planned Parenthood of the Columbia/Willamette, No. 02-563.
