    Someone who has access to Pacer; can we get a copy of the opinion? It's not on the public court system yet.

    I done seen it - it's a one pager with no analysis, granting Plaintiff's Docket No. 21 motion for summary judgment, and denying Plaintiff's other summary judgment motions 12 as moot and 25 as just "denied" . . .. I'm getting it posted here as fast as I can please bear with me. .

    Here is it, someone just needs to figure out where Docket entry 21 is in this thread:omg:


    ETA @ 9:55-

    Recap: Judge Legg ruled for Plaintiff's Docket entry 21 motion for summary judgment, but denied plaintiffs other motions for summary judgement.

    OK, here is the winning motion:

    Docket 21 motion (one page asking the court to rule) http://www.archive.org/download/gov.uscourts.mdd.180772/gov.uscourts.mdd.180772.21.0.pdf

    Docket 21 Memo in support of 21 (laying out why the court should rule for plaintiffs) http://www.archive.org/download/gov.uscourts.mdd.180772/gov.uscourts.mdd.180772.22.0.pdf

    The Opinion is attached...

    Because the ―good and substantial reason‖ requirement is not reasonably adapted to a substantial government interest, the Court finds this portion of the Maryland law to be unconstitutional. Woollard is entitled to summary judgment.
