Supreme Court of the United States
Ashcroft v. American Civil Liberties Union — O'Connor, J., Concurring
May 13, 2002535 U.S. 564
Summary
Justice O’Connor concurs in the judgment and Parts I, II, III-B, and IV of the plurality opinion. She agrees that COPA is not overbroad solely on variation in local community standards. She writes separately to argue adoption of a national standard is necessary for reasonable Internet obscenity regulation, as it is constitutionally permissible and technically feasible. She joins the judgment given the respondents’ failure to prove substantial overbreadth.
