Law To Curb Draft Cards Burning Upheld
The New York Court of Appeals upheld the federal ban on burning draft cards in a unanimous ruling. David J Miller of Syracuse argued the act violated free speech but the court said Congress may regulate draft related conduct to support the military. Miller received a suspended prison sentence and two years probation for violations of Selective Service law.
