The chief officer for the US Supreme Court Marshal Gail Curley has asked Maryland Governor Larry Hogan to enforce rules against picketing outside Maryland residence of high court justices, citing protests and increased threatening activities. Curley made the request in a letter to Hogan on July 1, pointing out that the Maryland law forbids people from assembling “in a manner that disrupts a person’s right to tranquility in the person’s home.” Curley further added that the protesters for weeks chanted slogans, banged on drums and used bullhorns, Reuters reported.

As per a copy of letter Curley informed Hogan, “I am writing to request that the Maryland State Police, in conjunction with local authorities as appropriate, enforce laws prohibiting picketing outside the homes of Supreme Court justices who live in Maryland,” published by Fox News website.
