Supreme Court of the United States

Multimedia Holdings Corp. Dba First Coast News v. Circuit Court of Florida, St. Johns County

April 15, 2005544 U.S. 1301

Summary

The Supreme Court denied an application for a stay of Florida Circuit Court orders that applicant sought to restrict its publication of grand jury transcripts. Justice Kennedy, writing as Circuit Justice, found the record insufficient to show the applicant was enjoined or faced a real threat of prosecution, especially after a clarifying order limited restrictions to parties.
