State v. Anonymous
Connecticut Superior Court
Decided July 1, 1977PublishedCited by 21 opinions
1Opinion of the CourtDavid M. Shea, J.
The defendant was found guilty by a jury of disorderly conduct in violation of General Statutes § 53a-182 (a) (2) and of harassment in violation of General Statutes § 53a-183 (a) (3). She has appealed assigning error in the denial of her motion to set aside the verdict. In this appeal she claims that the charge to the jury was deficient in that it failed to circumscribe the language of the two statutes involved within the limits required by the first amendment prohibition against restrictions upon freedom of speech, and she also claims error in a ruling upon evidence.
