0 tracked cards Constitutional Law

A newspaper challenged a state campaign-finance disclosure law in state court. The state supreme court rejected the newspaper's First Amendment argument. The court also held, in a separate section, that the newspaper would lose under a state constitutional provision that the court expressly interpreted as independent of federal law and adequate by itself to support the judgment. The newspaper petitions the United States Supreme Court for review.
Which statement best describes the Supreme Court's power to review the judgment?

Choose the Best Answer

The Supreme Court may not review the judgment if the state-law ground is adequate to support the result and independent of federal law. The Supreme Court may review the judgment unless the state court used the words adequate and independent in the final sentence. The Supreme Court may review the judgment because adequate and independent state grounds apply only in criminal cases. The Supreme Court must review the judgment because federal law was discussed before state law in the opinion.
