Bitter online postings during a child custody battle put a Pennsylvania man in conflict with a Bucks County judge over the man’s First Amendment rights. The judge ordered the man to take down a website PsychoExWife.com castigating his ex-wife.
Two days after the order, two new postings appeared one of which pledged to honor the judge’s order, but the other criticized his ex-wife and the judge and stated the judge had no power to regulate what he wrote online. The First Amendment issue will be contested in appeals court. -db
