Case Details

Landmark Supreme Court case where Webster & Garino successfully argued that compelling a criminal defendant to unlock their cell phone violates the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This case, Katelin Eunjoo Seo v. State of Indiana, involved a criminal defendant compelled to unlock her iPhone 7, which was successfully argued by William Webster.

Additional Notes

The Indiana Supreme Court's decision, issued on June 23, reversed a lower court's contempt order against Ms. Seo. The case garnered national attention and involved amicus briefs from multiple states and the ACLU.
