Dr. Yee's Brief

GamePolitics has their promised outline of the amicus curiae (friend of the court) brief they reported would be filed today in support of California's efforts at getting the U.S. Supreme Court to review the constitutionality of the state's 2005 violent video game law which has been ruled unconstitutional by two lower courts. The brief (Adobe Acrobat-format) was filed on behalf of State Sen. Leland Yee, author of the bill in question, along with the California Psychiatric and California Psychological Associations. Here's Senator Yee's press release about this, and GamePolitics makes what sense they can about the arguments they present to further the idea that violent games represent a threat that should overcome free speech considerations.
