Morgan v. Arizona

Certiorari Denied

Petition for certiorari denied on February 27, 2023.

Docket No.22-353
Op. BelowAriz.

Issue

(1) Whether the qualified right of access to voir dire under the First Amendment, recognized in Press-Enterprise Co. v. Superior Court I, includes the right to hear potential juror names during voir dire; and (2) whether, if the qualified First Amendment right of access to voir dire recognized in Press-Enterprise I does not include the right to hear potential juror names during voir dire, the Arizona Supreme Court misapplied the logic prong of the test articulated in Press-Enterprise Co. v. Superior Court II when it held that there is also no presumptive right to hear juror names during voir dire under that test.
