Re: Supreme Court???

said by ropeguru:
I wonder how long it will take for all the big boys, Microsoft, AOL and the like, to get this to the Supreme Court and get it rescended by paying off the judges???

Why would someone with a lifetime appointment to a high paying and highly prestigous job risk impeachment by taking a bribe? Any bribe big enough to buy someone in that position couldn't be held secret for very long.

People lobby Congress but I don't think I've ever heard of someone lobbying Supreme Court Justices.

You can't lobby a judge. A judge must be impartial. It's a felony offense to even suggest a bribe to even the lowest of judges. I don't feel that a federal anti-spyware bill would overrule a state bill if the state bill had broader limits. The state has the right to build upon existing federal statutes. If there was a federal law specifically stating that spyware was legal, then that would overrule the Utah law. The constitutionality of this law would go to the Utah supreme court first--since it will appear in their annotated laws/codes.
