States Given Much Greater Power To Act
The Supreme Court, in an 8-4 decision, returns power to states to curb obscenity using local standards rather than national ones. It allows juries to judge taken as a whole for literary artistic political or scientific value and lowers the requirement of utter lack of social value. The ruling broadens local prosecutorial authority and rejects the idea that adult theater pornography enjoys constitutional protection.
