US SUPREME COURT ASKS GOVERNMENT FOR VIEWS ON ABORTION FREE SPEECH CASE

WASHINGTON, December 16, 2002 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The U.S. Supreme Court has solicited the federal government for its views on the "Nuremberg Files" case. Reuters reports that the Court asked for the government submission Monday.

The American Coalition of Life Activists argues that it lists the names and addresses of abortionists on their site in the hopes of eventually prosecuting them for the killing of unborn children just as Nazi's who murdered Jews were prosecuted during the Nuremberg trials.

The Department of Justice Solicitor General Theodore Olson will file a brief expressing the government's views. However, the submission could take several months.

The case is American Coalition of Life Activists v. Planned Parenthood, 02-563.
