Fla. High Court Vacates DNA Testing Deadline
We knew there was justice somewhere in Florida....
The Florida Supreme Court set aside a Wednesday deadline for inmates to request DNA testing of evidence that could prove their innocence. By a 4-3 vote today, the justices said they were putting aside the deadline so they can take more time to consider the inmates' appeal challenging the deadline's constitutionality. They said they will hear oral arguments Nov. 7.
Here's background, along with a TalkLeft mini-editorial on the issue.
