[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3358642, member: 7900"] Even before they made their decision, I knew the SC would pass on this one. The suit was brought up in New York and when it started into the process of being appealed, not heard in the first courts, and New York changed the law, it was a moot case before it even got there. But what RickN and jcelt said about the judges still issuing a dissenting opinion clearly says that the SC would have treated it differently had NY left the law as it was originally written. In fact, I don't remember any other cases where such a dissent was issued upon a case considered moot. This could actually be a ground-breaking moment. [/QUOTE]
