Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Oberholzer, F. v. Galapo, S. Aplts.

August 20, 2024

Summary

Justice Brobson dissents, holding that Pennsylvania trial courts may enjoin residential speech that constitutes a private nuisance disrupting a neighbor’s quiet enjoyment, that the injunction is content‑neutral and narrowly tailored, and therefore would reverse the Superior Court’s vacatur and reinstate the injunction. The dissent argues the majority’s new standard is unwarranted and that the trial court’s factual findings should stand.
