The Supreme Court on Tuesday lifted an injunction that kept a disgruntled former client of defense lawyer Johnnie Cochran from picketing outside Cochran's office. Justices did not address broad free-speech questions raised by the appeal because Cochran died of a brain tumor a week after the case was argued in March. Instead, the Court ruled 7-2 that in light of Cochran's death, a judge's order limiting the demonstrations of Ulysses Tory "amounts to an overly broad prior restraint upon speech."
