Judges issue gag orders to prevent the release of information that could compromise the fairness and impartiality of a trial. The main reasons a judge might issue a gag order are:
  1. To protect the right to a fair trial: By preventing the release of information that could prejudice the jury, a gag order helps ensure that the outcome of a trial is based on the evidence presented in court, rather than on media coverage or public opinion.
  2. To protect sensitive information: Gag orders can be used to prevent the release of confidential or sensitive information, such as the identity of a minor, confidential medical records, or classified information in a national security case.
  3. To maintain the integrity of the legal process: A gag order can help prevent the spread of false information or rumors that could harm the reputation of the parties involved in the case.
  4. To protect the privacy of the parties involved: In high-profile cases, a gag order can help protect the privacy of the individuals involved and prevent the release of information that could harm their reputation or safety.
It's important to note that while gag orders can serve an important purpose, they also raise important First Amendment concerns about freedom of speech and the press. As a result, gag orders are subject to strict scrutiny and may be challenged if they are deemed too broad or unjustified.

The challenge to the gag order comes from not only the Goncalves family, but from over thirty media networks as well. The parties are challenging the broad scope of the gag order and contend that the bloated scope of order falls outside of the boundaries that were established by the supreme court.
