Shepardize

  • subject of the article ← partially done: Pulled up a list of cases showing negative treatment: there are fourteen, but none of them have overturned the holding of Street. (This should be double-checked.) The most salient case showing "negative treatment" Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397, the case holding that flag-burning is a constitutionally-protected form of expression. Next step is to look up 24 N.Y.2d 1026, 250 N.E.2d 250 and 24 N.Y.2d 1039 to find out what happened to the defendant.
  • citations within the article ← not done yet.

Create redirects (task description): not done yet.

fix trial record redlink, either by writing or by finding a suitable target article: not done yet.

expand discussion of impact of decision, and compare with laws in other jurisdictions: not done yet.

final revision and copyedit (for style, legal substance and citation form): not done yet.
