En Banc 9th Circuit to Review Abortion Speech Case
The Recorder

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decided Wednesday to rehear en banc a 
case that could outline the limits of provocative speech under the First 
Amendment. The case was brought by abortion providers who were depicted by 
anti-abortion activists on "Wanted"-style posters. The key issue is whether 
context can be used to determine if speech has crossed the line from being 
provocative to being threatening.
