They argued that an "unabated buildup" of adverse publicity had jeopardized their ability to receive a fair trial. The request was granted by the judge, and no objections were made at the time. The judge then denied press access to the pre-trial hearing and refused to immediately release the transcript of the proceedings. The case was argued and decided with Marshall, Secretary of Labor v. American Petroleum Institute et al.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1970-1979/1978/1978_77_1301/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1970-1979/1970/1970_26/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1960-1969/1960/1960_41/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1950-1959/1958/1958_383/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1970-1979/1974/1974_74_5116/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1980-1989/1983/1983_83_95/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1960-1969/1962/1962_630/ <p>After suffering a trial court conviction of second-degree murder for the bludgeoning death of his pregnant wife, Samuel Sheppard challenged the verdict as the product of an unfair trial. Sheppard, who maintained his innocence of the crime, alleged that the trial judge failed to protect him from the massive, widespread, and prejudicial publicity that attended his prosecution. On appeal from an Ohio district court ruling supporting his claim, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed. When Sheppard appealed again, the Supreme Court granted certiorari.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1960-1969/1965/1965_490/ <p>No details yet.</p> http://www.oyez.org/cases/1960-1969/1967/1967_68/
