1Opinion of the Court
MANNHEIMER, Judge.
Frank W. Turney appeals his convictions for second-degree trespass, AS 11.46.330(a)(1), and disorderly conduct, AS 11.61.110(a)(2). Turney was prosecuted for these offenses as a result of his protest activities outside the state courthouse in Fair banks. On appeal, Turney asserts that his protest activities were protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and Article I, Section 5 of the Alaska Constitution. For the reasons explained in this opinion, we reverse Turney’s trespass conviction but we affirm his disorderly conduct conviction.
