Garcetti v. Ceballos (2006) | Public Employee Speech & The First Amendment

Over the next two episodes, I'll be reading two past opinions that will help us better understand two cases currently before the Court. 

The past opinions are Garcetti v. Ceballos (2006) and Packingham v. North Carolina (2017). The two cases currently before the Court are Lindke v. Freed and O'Connor-Ratcliff v. Garnier; these two similar cases were granted cert on the same day and their oral arguments were both given on the same day - October 31, 2023.

Today I'll be reading the opinion of the Court in Garcetti v. Ceballos (2006)
