Nebraska picketing case tests state's mass law at Lincoln theater
Patrick Healey of the Nebraska Civil Liberties Union said charges may be filed to test the mass picketing statute. Three men were arrested in front of Stuart Theater for violation after NDO members handed out leaflets and Local 131 strike supporters boycotted the theater. Healey argued the act may violate free speech and that leafleting could be protected.
