SpeechNow Slapdown on Amicus Question

Court order:

    Before the Court is the motion of Democracy 21 and Campaign Legal Center for leave to file a memorandum as amici curiae [10]. Plaintiff Speechnow.org, representing and urging a completely unrestricted, libertarian approach to campaign financing in the name of free speech, opposes the motion, arguing, apparently without any sense of irony, that the speech of amici should not be heard — now. Electronic case filing provides a very big tent for amici. The filing of a memorandum amicus curiae prejudices nobody and obligates no party to respond. The motion is granted.
