Soto v. Texas
Petition for certiorari denied on February 21, 2023
Issue: (1) Whether a law that criminalizes expressive speech is immunized from First Amendment scrutiny if it also criminalizes non-expressive conduct; and (2) whether a law that punishes the repeated sending of electronic communications with intent and likely result to "harass, annoy, alarm, abuse, torment, embarrass, or offend" another is unconstitutionally overbroad.
