  It's a case that has nothing to do with the WTBTS. One of the parties has cited a previous case involving WTBTS in their legal arguments, which is probably what caused it to show up in the google search.

  Thank you Chaserious for explanation. Please, can you comment on that specific case in which the Watchtower was involved? Not the case in which the Watchtower was sited.

  Do you have the citation for the WT case? It will be numbers and letters following the case name. If you report it precisely, I will try and skim the case.

  Scott, in the appeals brief you linked to, the party cites Watchtower Bible & Tract Soc’y v. Village of Stratton, 536 U.S. 150 (2002). It's a 2002 U.S. Supreme Court case about door-to-door preaching and the First Amendment. I'm sure you've read about it at some point. It even has its own Wikipedia page.
