This document appears to be a page from a manuscript or memoir (dated 2012) recounting the narrator's (likely Alan Dershowitz) early legal career in the late 1960s. It details his First Amendment defense of the Swedish film 'I Am Curious Yellow,' which was seized by US Customs and owned by Grove Press. The text outlines his legal strategy to challenge obscenity laws using the 'Stanley v. Georgia' precedent, comparing it to his work with Justice Goldberg.
