- kbenson 13y agoWouldn't it only create precedence if he sued and it was dismissed? I can't imagine precedence being created from the lack of a legal decision.
- dfc 13y agoCaveat lector: You should significantly discount legal analysis from an author that confuses precedence and precedent. To be honest I am even confused about what precedent you are referring to?
- judk 13y agoJustsignedup is saying that the state is trying to get defendant to plea to a no-punishment conviction, pressuring defendant to agree to their charges, so that he state can win future cases on this precedent.
