Court Strikes Down State’s Boy-Girl-Boy or Girl-Boy-Girl Vehicle Seating Requirement
An appeals court today struck down a state law that prohibits same-sex occupants of a vehicle from sitting next to one another, saying it violates the Constitutional right to free seats.
Judge Jubilee Scheindlin, speaking for the three-member panel, said, “This litigation to each of the benefit of authentication of any plaintiff in close proximity and acting solely by the greater actions evidenced, thereby constituting the meaning in section 2a of the indenture,” or something like that.
Local District Attorney Dink Bonanno said he was disgusted by the court’s action. “I can’t cotton to two fellers sitting right next to each other, especially when one of them is sitting on the parking brake handle. That’s sick.”
