Back in 1963, some people in Birmingham were accused of participating in illegal activities such as sit-ins and street parades without permission. The city asked a judge to stop these activities with a temporary injunction, but some people continued to protest anyway. The lower court found these people guilty of disobeying the injunction and they were not allowed to make any constitutional arguments. The state court agreed with the lower court and said that the injunction had to be obeyed.
