Appeals judges: Anti-paparazzi law appears legal

FILE - In this Nov. 18, 2012 file photo, Justin Bieber accepts the award for favorite album - pop/rock for "Believe" at the 40th Anniversary American Music Awards, in Los Angeles. A Los Angeles appellate panel wrote in a preliminary statement filed Monday, Jan. 28, 2013, that a 2010 California anti-paparazzi statute is constitutional. The law was used to charge a photographer for chasing Bieber last year, but a judge dismissed the anti-paparazzi counts in November 2012 because he said the law is overly broad and unconstitutional.
