FALA occasionally files amicus briefs in cases involving First Amendment issues. However, because it is an all-volunteer organization, we must prioritize. Generally, we focus on cases that potentially have broad application, those that are being litigated in intermediate or higher level courts, and those where the parties are being represented by FALA affiliated counsel. FALA also seeks opportunities to collaborate on amicus briefs with other organizations when appropriate.
