Prior restraints refer to government actions that prevent specific speech or publications before they occur, effectively censoring content before it can be disseminated. This legal concept is often considered a violation of the First Amendment in the United States, as it restricts freedom of expression. Courts typically view prior restraints with skepticism, requiring a compelling justification for such actions, as they can inhibit open discourse and the free flow of information. Examples include injunctions against publishing certain materials or government permits needed for media coverage.
