On Monday, June 11, 1990 the court made it's final decision. The court voted 5 - 4 in Eichman's favor. It was said:
"its asserted interest is related to the suppression of free expression and concerned with the content of such expression."
Justice William J. Brennan, Jr. wrote the majority opinion for the case. He stated that "Allowing the flag to be burned in a disposal ceremony but prohibiting protesters from setting it ablaze at a political protest made that clear" (about the final decision.)
