  Time Warner Entertainment v. USA, No. 96-5272   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Time Warner argues that both provisions facially—that is, no matter how sensitively or sensibly they might be implemented—violate the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States; the Commission argues the opposite.
Time Warner does not argue that the Congress failed to identify an important governmental interest, but rather faults the Congress for having acted without having made findings, and without having evidence upon which it could have made findings, that either of these problems is a real one.
In that case, we rejected Time Warner's argument that the leased access provision was a content-based restriction, and therefore subject to strict scrutiny, because nothing in the statute favored or disfavored speech on the basis of its content: "The statutory objective...

Time Warner argues that the subscriber limits provision is a content-based restriction of its ability to communicate with its audience, and as such is subject to strict scrutiny.
Time Warner is correct that the Court's acceptance of the must-carry obligation as content-neutral rested in large part upon the Court's understanding that the purpose of the statute was to maintain the availability of broadcast television for those without cable; that does not render Turner I wholly inapplicable, however.
Time Warner argues that because the Congress expressed concern that cable operators might favor their affiliated pro- gramming services the legislature's "stated design was to suppress cable operators' speech," and to advance the speech of nonaffiliated programmers.

 TIME WARNER ENTERTAINMENT v
Time Warner's initial point regarding the leased access provisions n3 is that they [**28] should be subject to the most stringent of the standards used to evaluate restrictions on speech.
Their qualification to lease time on those channels depends not on the content of their speech, but on their lack of affiliation with the operator, a distinguishing characteristic stemming from considerations relating to the structure of cable television.
The problems Time Warner sees are elsewhere: there is first the lack of any demonstration that the leased access provisions address a real, non-conjectural harm; and there is second the loose fit between the remedy of setting aside a percentage of channel capacity and the supposed harm.

 Time Warner Ent. v. FCC, D.C.Cir. No. 97-1263
Time Warner's primary response is that the issues it raises were directly implicated in the reasoning of our prior decision and were therefore covered in the remand order.
Time Warner objects that this is a "post-hoc explanation," and argues that transition rate operators do have a gap, albeit a different one.
Time Warner, however, contends that an operator using the transition rate faced a slightly different gap, one that began on April 1, 1993 instead of September 30, 1992, but likewise ended on the date the system first became subject to rate regulation.

Petitioners Time Warner and AT&T challenge the horizontal limit as in excess of statutory authority, as unconstitutional infringements of their freedom of speech, and as products of arbitrary and capricious decisionmaking which violate the Administrative Procedure Act.
Together with AT&T, Time Warner also challenges as arbitrary and capricious the rules for determining what counts as an "attributable interest." Con- cluding that the FCC has not met its burden under the First Amendment and, in part, lacks statutory authority for its actions, we remand for further consideration of both limits.

 03-3005 -- Time Warner Entertainment Co. V. National Multihousing Council -- 08/27/2004
Time Warner counters that, when read as a whole the license agreement is unambiguous and grants Time Warner a legally enforceable right to maintain all of its home run wires at The Atriums, regardless of whether the home run wires are currently in use by Time Warner to provide cable television to tenants.
On appeal, Time Warner contests the district court's interpretation of the license agreement on three main grounds: (1) the agreement is unambiguous; (2) the clear language supports Time Warner's interpretation of the agreement; and (3) the district court's interpretation results in absurdity.
Next, Time Warner argues that the district court's interpretation of the contract leads to absurdity in that the logical conclusion of its reading is that Time Warner's license vanishes each time a tenant moves out, a tenant cancels its subscription with Time Warner, or a tenant chooses a competing cable service.

 American Movie Classics Co. v Time Warner Entertainment, L.P. (2005 NY Slip Op 52081(U))
Time Warner cross-moves, asserting that AMCC breached the unambiguous content clause since there has been a "material change" in the programming's "general quantity and quality." It also asserts that AMCC may not pursue its claim for damages in connection with its anticipatory breach claim, since it chose to continue performing under the contract.
Time Warner asserts that the clause limits AMCC's programming throughout the term of the contract to the programming that AMCC actually provided at the time the contract was entered into, as set forth in the Representative Sampling.
Time Warner also contends that material and substantial changes were made by AMCC with respect to its non-movie programming, and an even greater change took place within the category of "original" programming.
