P v. Florez (6th Dist.) Another Judicial Burlesque on PC 1170.18 and 1170.126.

Here a Sixth District panel, over a dissent by P.J. Rushing, tries its hand at disguising personal dislike for a particular law.  The fruits of its effort are on par with the Third District's efforts at the same task in People v. Myers.  Reading both opinions is like biting into a shiny, red, grocery store apple, only to get a mouthful of dry, mealy, and bland flesh.

For an analysis, just read the recent post on Myers.  For an even better analysis, read Justice Rushing's dissent.  That Rushing is being intellectual honest is irrefragable.
