路易斯安那州最高法院拒绝审理新奥尔良市市长LaToya Cantrell的上诉, The Louisiana Supreme Court declined to hear New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell’s appeal, upholding a previous ruling that dismissed her stalking lawsuit against resident Anne Breaud. 法院认定Cantrell的主张侵犯了Breaud的第一修正案权利,因为在公共场所拍摄公众人物是受保护的言论。 The court found Cantrell’s claims violated Breaud’s First Amendment rights, as photographing public figures in public spaces is protected speech. Cantrell现在必须向Breaud支付23 393.52美元的法律费。 Cantrell must now pay $23,393.52 in legal fees to Breaud. 本案与对Cantrell及其前保镖Jeffrey Vappie的单独联邦起诉书有关,Jeffrey Vappie面临18项指控,包括电线欺诈和虚假陈述,定于2026年10月进行审判。 The case is connected to a separate federal indictment against Cantrell and her former bodyguard, Jeffrey Vappie, who face 18 charges including wire fraud and false statements, with a trial scheduled for October 2026.
