Opinion:
NATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY OF AMERICA et al. v. VILLAGE OF SKOKIE
No. 76-1786.
Decided June 14, 1977
Per Curiam.
On April 29, 1977, the Circuit Court of Cook County entered an injunction against petitioners. The injunction prohibited them from performing any of the following actions within the village of Skokie, Ill.: “[m]arching, walking or parading in the uniform of the National Socialist Party of America; [m]arching, walking or parading or otherwise displaying the swastika on or off their person; [distributing pamphlets or displaying any materials which incite or promote hatred against persons of Jewish faith or ancestry or hatred against persons of any faith or ancestry, race or religion.” The Illinois Appellate Court denied an application for stay pending appeal. Applicants then filed a petition for a stay in the Illinois Supreme Court, together with a request for a direct expedited appeal to that court. The Illinois Supreme Court denied both the stay and leave for an expedited appeal. Applicants then filed an application for a stay with Mr. Justice Stevens, as Circuit Justice, who referred the matter to the Court.
Treating the application as a petition for certiorari from the order of the Illinois Supreme Court, we grant certiorari and reverse the Illinois Supreme Court’s denial of a stay. That order is a final judgment for purposes of our jurisdiction, since it involved a right “separable from, and collateral to” the merits, Cohen v. Beneficial Loan Corp., 337 U. S. 541, 546 (1949). See Abney v. United States, 431 U. S. 651 (1977); cf. Cox Broadcasting Corp. v. Cohn, 420 U. S. 469, 476-487 (1975). It finally determined the merits of petitioners’ claim that the outstanding injunction will deprive them of rights protected by the First Amendment during the period of appellate review which, in the normal course, may take a year or more to complete. If a State seeks to impose a restraint of this kind, it must provide strict procedural safeguards, Freedman v. Maryland, 380 U. S. 51 (1965), including immediate appellate review, see Nebraska Press Assn. v. Stuart, 423 U. S. 1319, 1327 (1975) (Blackmun, J., in chambers). Absent such review, the State must instead allow a stay. The order of the Illinois Supreme Court constituted a denial of that right.
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with this opinion.
So ordered.
Mr. Justice White would deny the stay.
