What was the main event that occurred in the Schenck v. United States case?

       The Court Upheld Charles Schenck and Elizabeth Baer's convictions for violating the Espionage Act of 1917 by obstructing the "recruiting or enlistment service" during World War I in the seminal case Schenck v. United States, 249 U.S. 47 (1919).

       The case of Schenck v United States was a court argument in which the U.S. Supreme Court held on 3 March 1919 that the defense of freedom of expression provided for in the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution could be limited if the words uttered or printed represented a "simple and present threat" to society.
