metadigital Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 One theory floating around the courthouse is that the judges were taking a jab at the state Supreme Court, which has decreed that judges must interpret statutory language adopted by the Legislature literally, whatever the consequences. Excellent: fundamentalism in law! Of course judges can't be trusted to exercise their own personal judgment, that would be like a soldier deciding who to aim at, or the electorate whom they should vote for ...

thepixiesrock Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 So does this mean I have to move now? Or just not get married.

Sand Posted January 20, 2007 Posted January 20, 2007 The appeals court decision involved a man convicted of trading prescription painkillers for sex. In an attempt to increase his jail time, prosecutors used an obscure provision of the state's criminal law to charge him with criminal sexual conduct, which occurs whenever "sexual penetration occurs under circumstances involving the commission of any other felony."
