Free Speech Vs Stalking

Summary

Balancing free speech and stalking injunctions involves key cases like Madsen v. Womens Health Center and Schenck v. Pro-Choice Network. Utahs open carry laws allow firearms without a permit, but restrictions exist. Stalking injunctions under Utah Code Ann. § 77-3a-101 can be sought if safety is threatened. Cases such as US v. Black discuss open carry rights and public safety. State v. Ball primarily addresses evidentiary issues, not open carry. For specific legal concerns, consider exploring cases directly related to open carry and public safety.
