Which one of the cases are you talking about? There has been multiple cases in the recent years.
Mostly, and I actually disagree with the decisions, the recent bills were about enforcing the age restrictions on games and in the case of retailers selling to minors imposing a sanction. For some reason these bills keep getting shot down by judges who think minors should have access to these games. Crazy I know. But they're the experts.
Here's an old article about the Californian one. It wasn't over back then but the bill failed.

EDIT: Actually about the "Video games cause violence" thing. Part of the reason these laws keep getting shot down is actually because no one has managed to prove it. Judge said so in this one:
