A prior restraint is a form of coercion used before an event or action to prevent it from happening. A post restraint is a form of punishment after an act occurs. First Amendment cases, particularly with regard to freedom of the press, often talk about prior and posts restraints. If the government censored a newspaper by prohibiting it from publishing an article, that would be an example of prior restraint. In almost all cases, that is ruled unconstitutional. On the other hand, if the government imprisoned a journalist for publishing classified information in the paper, that would be an example of post restraint.
