On Tuesday, we filed the Respondent’s Brief in Borough of Duryea, Pennsylvania, et al v. Guarnieri, No. 09-1476. Since SCOTUS Blog does not appear to have the Petitioner’s Brief on their site, I thought we would place this one on the blogosphere as well.

The case involves whether government employees can use the First Amendment Petition Clause as protection when they complain to government entities about personal matters rather than matters of public concern.
