The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals will convene an 11-judge panel today to weigh in on whether a man's rights were abridged when he was arrested at a Santa Cruz, Calif., City Council meeting after giving a Nazi salute. Robert Norse says he abhors Nazi views but was protesting what he viewed as the mayor's unfair cutting off of a speaker who was criticizing the council. Norse's lawsuit against the city has lasted more than six years and may be destined for the U.S. Supreme Court.
