Key Principle

In a companion case to Lindke v. Freed, the Court vacated and remanded a school-board members' social-media blocking case so the lower court could apply the newly articulated two-part state-action test (actual authority to speak for the State and a purported exercise of that authority) rather than the Ninth Circuit's broader 'appearance and content' approach.
