Near v. Minnesota Ex Rel. Olsongreen1 sentence2025Because of the United States Supreme Court’s holding that the First Amendment’s guarantees of free speech and press are among the liberties that the Fourteenth Amendment protects against state action, see Near v. Minnesota, 283 U.S. 697, 707 (1931), we have no reason to consider whether a materially similar state law would violate the Ohio Constitution; even if we held that the Ohio Constitution did not bar such a law, the law would still be invalid under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. | 1 | 1 |
Stanley v. Georgiagreen1 sentence2025Nonetheless, it is “well established that the [federal] Constitution protects the right to receive information and ideas,” Stanley v. Georgia, 394 U.S. 557, 564 (1969), and in that general sense, there can be no law or holding that would deprive Ohioans of this right, and thus, it is safe to conclude that the Ohio Constitution—like the United States Constitution—similarly protects the right to receive information and ideas. 53 SUPREME COURT OF OHIO {¶ 140} The Ohio Constitution also places a special emphasis on the presentation of truthful information to voters when they are asked whether they | 1 | 1 |

Scott v. News-Heraldgreen2 sentences1990Further, that Court found error in the Ohio Supreme Court's interpretation of Gertz v. Robert Welch Inc., (1974), 48 U.S. 323 , saying that Gertz should not be interpreted to hold harmless certain statements as privileged "opinion," as the Ohio Supreme Court did in Scott, supra. A careful reading of Scott does not support appellees' present position that nevertheless the Ohio Supreme Court held that, independent of the Federal Constitution, the Ohio Constitution provided a privilege for "opinions" within its Freedom of the Press section. 1990While it is true that the Ohio Supreme Court stated at Scott , 244, that "opinion" is protected by Section 11, Article I of the Ohio Constitution, in doing so, Scott relied solely on its own interpretation of federal law. | 1 | 1 |
