United States Supreme Court


VIRGINIA v. HICKS, 02-371

The trespass policy in place at a low-income housing development owned by a political subdivision is not facially invalid under the First Amendment overbreadth doctrine, as 1) the policy does not prohibit a substantial amount of protected speech in relation to legitimate applications, and 2) rules apply to all person's entering the development, not just those seeking to engage in expression.
