The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals assigned case number 23-2969 to California Attorney General Rob Bonta’s (D) appeal of the district court's Sept. 18 decision granting NetChoice’s motion for a preliminary injunction to block him from enforcing AB-2273, the…
state’s Age Appropriate Design Code, said a docketing notice Monday. Besides blocking AB-2273's enforcement on First Amendment grounds, the district court also held that AB-2273 is preempted by the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act and Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. "We believe the district court decision is wrong, and that we should be able to protect our children as they use the internet,” said Bonta as he filed the appeal Oct. 18 (see 2310190030).
