There have been so many of these that there is no way to put a
significant percentage of them on here. For
example:
- Lemon v. Kurtzman. This was a case having to do
with the Establishment Clause. It set up a test to determine what government actions that seem to
favor religion are actually acceptable. - Miller v. California. This
one also set up a three part test. This one determines what things are and are not
obscene. - Johnson v. Texas. This one struck down a law against flag
burning. - Near v. Minnesota. This one said that governments
cannot, in most circumstances, exercise "prior restraint" to prevent a newspaper from publishing
something.
Again, there are so many more that have been
very significant, partly because there are so many aspects of First Amendment
law.
