Ark Right to Life v Butler, http://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=11215408835135124670&hl=en&as_sdt=2&as_vis=1&oi=scholarr,
didn't turn out the way I thought it did. The court denied summary judgment to plaintiffs, saying there was a question of material fact as to whether the statute was narowly tailored. (This was legal error, Talley and McIntyre are controlling.)

I wonder how the case eventually turned out - there doesn't seem to be any followup reported decision. The 8th circuit opinion did not address the disclaimer issue. I'll go double-check that.
I am in the process of restarting my McIntyre project, to monitor and enforce state compliance with the McIntyre and Talley decisions.

Here is a dump of some notes I took yesterday while blogger was down for awhile.
Some of my older notes can be found in the archives of majors.blogspot.com, which I'll need to review.

Courts have declared some of these laws unconstitutional in recent years, relying upon our decision in Talley v. California, 362 U.S. 60(1960). See, e.g., State v.

S. 2d 129 (1974). Other decisions, including all pre-Talley decisions I am aware of, have upheld the laws. See, e.g.,Commonwealth v. Evans, 156 Pa. Super. 321, 40 A. 2d 137 (1944);State v. Freeman, 143 Kan. 315, 55 P. 2d 362 (1936); State v. Babst, 104 Ohio St. 167, 135 N. E. 525 (1922).
