No Decision YET in International Megan's Law Injunction
We just heard from those in the courtroom that today’s hearing for an injunction temporarily preventing the implementation of the International Megan’s Law (IML) is complete. Janice did a stellar job.
The judge in the case did not make a decision at the end of the hearing. Presumably she will take some time, digest, investigate the law and then issue an order in the very near future. Can take days, can take weeks, unlikely more.
We will keep you apprised as soon as we hear of the outcome.
So what’s next?
Today wasn’t the actual fight. This is just one of the battles along the way. We were seeking preliminary and temporary relief that would be in effect until the full court proceedings can be decided on. The full court proceeding will still come.

Yes it does sound that way – however, I also felt that the judges words had a tone of “whatever.” In other words they felt that the marker was no big deal because they are already notifying the countries (which by the way seems unconstitutional to me too). The part where the judge said “How did you make that leap/” did not seem very sympathetic to the cause to me …
well it sounds to me like the judge basically said that there was sufficient notification without having to mark the passports…agree?
Who knows what these judges decide in the end?
yea u never kno but it did sound like that to me..we shall see
