Description

Argued February 6, 2003 Plaintiffs Sexual Health Network, Inc. and American Civil Liberties Union of Vermont brought suit against Vermont's Governor, Attorney General and various State's Attorneys (""State Defendants"" or ""Appellants"") to enjoin enforcement of 13 V.S.A. § 2802a on the basis that it violated the First Amendment right of free expression and the dormant Commerce Clause. The United States District Court for the District of Vermont (J. Garvan Murtha, District Judge) found that the statute violated both the First Amendment and the dormant Commerce Clause and enjoined defendants from enforcing the statute. We affirm the district court's finding that the statute would violate the First Amendment and the dormant Commerce Clause if applied to the plaintiffs but modify the injunction to enjoin only its applications to the plaintiffs' internet-related activity.
