Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Aaron Matthew Oleston
Case No.: 2020AP952-CR
Officials: GRAHAM, J.
Focus: 1st Amendment Violation
Aaron Matthew Oleston appeals a judgment of conviction for five counts of disorderly conduct. He argues that the conduct for which he was convicted is protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. I conclude that the conduct at issue in counts one, two, and three cannot be criminally prosecuted because it is constitutionally protected speech. However, I conclude that the First Amendment does not protect the conduct at issue in counts four and five. Accordingly, I affirm in part and reverse in part.
