Gitlow v. New York,, was a decision by the United States Supreme Court, which ruled that the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution had extended the reach of certain limitations on federal government authority set forth in the First Amendment — specifically the provisions protecting freedom of speech and freedom of the press — to the governments of the individual states.

Gitlow v. New York partly reversed that precedent and began a trend toward its nearly complete reversal.

The Court used the doctrine first enunciated in Gitlow in other cases, such as De Jonge v. Oregon, 299 U. S. 353 ( 1937 ), Wolf v. Colorado, 338 U. S. 25 ( 1949 ), and Gideon v. Wainwright, 372 U. S. 335 ( 1963 ), to extend the reach of the Bill of Rights.

Incorporation started in 1897 with a takings case, continued with Gitlow v. New York ( 1925 ), which was a First Amendment case, and accelerated in the 1940s and 1950s.

Although the text of the Amendment prohibits only the United States Congress from enacting laws that abridge the freedom of speech, the Supreme Court used the incorporation doctrine in Gitlow v. New York ( 1925 ) to also prohibit state legislatures from enacting such laws.

New York ( 1925 ), in which the Court expressly held that States were bound to protect freedom of speech.

However, that incorporation has instead been achieved mostly by means of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, which has been used by a series of Supreme Court decisions such as Gitlow v. New York and Duncan v. Louisiana to incorporate the First, Second ( due process was relied upon by four of the five justices voting for incorporation ), Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, the Seventh when a state court is enforcing a federally created right, of which the right to trial by jury is a substantial part, and Eighth Amendment rights and protections as privileges of residents of the States.
