Heya folks.
I am looking for a good site that has recently submitted cases to the court system that are first amendment issues. Can be news site but has to be within the last month anywhere in the U.S.. I am looking for recent submissions or court cases to review for a class.
Thanks for your help gang.
One of the most active First Amendment advocacy organization is the ACLU. Check out https://www.aclu.org/scotus/2014-supreme-court-term for some examples.
I'm not sure what you mean by "recent" -- do you mean recently disposed of finally, recently appealed, recently submitted? Hobby Lobby, for example, is a rather important First Amendment case, decided this past June, but first filed in 2012. Is that recent?

The news needs to be recent but the case status can be just submitted, just appealed, just disposed. So the hobby lobby thing is too old unless there has been something that happened within the last few weeks. It doesnt have to be a huge case either it can be "local Amish community submitts case to bypass county building permits on religious grounds" as an example.
Have you considered googling the subject?Indeed. I was wondering if anyone had a go to site they liked.
ACLU.org, "search" for "first amendment" and then go through the various cases listed.

Not exactly what you're looking for, but it's got a nice backlog of stupid things done to silence others and the legal responses.
National lawyers guild are always on the edge of First Amendment stuff.
Popehat is a blog I enjoy by a lawyer who does a lot of free speech advocacy.
