Ind. Decisions - More on: "Booksellers incensed over sexual content law"
Re yesterday's federal court opinion in the case of Big Hat Books v. Prosecutors: Adams, et al - see ILB entries here and here - Attorney General Steve Carter has issued a statement this afternoon:
This week’s ruling by a federal district court judge striking down a new law that would have required retailers selling sexually explicit material to register with the state will not be appealed announced Indiana Attorney General Steve Carter today.“The next general assembly session will provide legislators with an opportunity to explore ways to address the weaknesses of the statute,” Carter said. “The attorney general’s office is available to consult with lawmakers if they choose to pursue revised language to meet their objectives.”
