They changed the title of the book, but it is the same book. They still haven't rectified any of the legal problems of the statute of limitations, of the staleness of the charges.

At the time, there was talk in Germany of placing a statute of limitation on the prosecution of Nazis. It seems Israel wanted to send a message to discourage that.
Gad Shimron
By placing discretion in the hands of an official to grant or deny a license, such a statute creates a threat of censorship that by its very existence chills free speech.
Harry A. Blackmun
Guilt and innocence were not really at issue here. It's clear that he violated the statute.
Jon Bruning
The department immediately sensed that the safety of the public was an issue and utilized the statute that allows us to take emergency action on an alcohol license.
Jack Magee
She had no right to contact that grand juror when it is specifically barred by statute. [Owens] just made herself a witness.
Alfred Stavros
Whether they're able to do under the ethics statute or not, it's a plain conflict of interest.
Janet Howard
The potential for abuse is written into the statute: the very people who might have information regarding investigative abuses and overreaching are preemptively prevented from sharing that information with the public and with the legislators who empower the executive branch with the tools used to investigate matters of national security.
Janet Hall
It's a level of commitment municipalities feel isn't strong enough when it's in statute.
Michael Starn
Every year, legislators override the statute. It's a serious issue for our members. We want to ensure the benefit will be there.
Rosemary Coyle
Under Missouri statute, abuse of a child is a class B felony which is punishable by a term of imprisonment between five and 15 years. The point we always make is that this charge against Ms. Hyatt is merely an accusation. As in all criminal cases, the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
John Fougere
Because we feel there was a good-faith argument to make that the statute as written was constitutional, we feel we have an obligation to make that argument if at all possible.
Dan Mullen
It's a question of whether or not somebody is working in employment covered by the unemployment statute and the fact that they may do that work in their home is not a separate issue.
David Tucker
There's a statute in the minimum wage law that allows municipalities and cities home rule to [set their own minimum wage rates]. We don't want to see [section] 50-4-29 changed and we support the right of the municipalities to set their own rates.
Gerry Bradley
It has a perverse effect. It says the DEC can essentially put things in the drawer, lock them away, then when we do find out about things and realize we have a right to challenge, the statute of limitations runs out.
Robert Goldstein
The materials that are now being publicly released are simply an effort to 'try' the case that the OIC could not win in court in an adversarial process. The only good thing about the current OIC report is that it is the final chapter written under an ill-conceived and dangerous statute.
Barry Simon
Kids live everywhere. ... This statute is far from rational, and may in fact be counterproductive.
Stephen Johnsongrove
We need clarification from the court as to what exactly it means when (statute) says we're exempt from impact fees.
Dennis Alfonso
As long as the argument that they make to the judge comports with the minimum and the maximum allowed by the statute and the aggravating factors they bring forward are allowed by the sentencing statute ... that's their discretion and their job, ... And if they didn't do it, then we'd probably live in a less safe community.
Charles Rose
Jefferson wasn't really a primary author of the First Amendment. But Jefferson was the author of the Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, which is seen as kind of a precursor of the First Amendment. It was Jefferson's protégé, James Madison, who helped draft the First Amendment. So the metaphor is apt and it is important.
Rob Boston
As one of the judges in the Court of Appeal pointed out, the interpretation so given results in unfairness. It is unjust that if insurance companies agree to insure a party to the extent of a sum in excess of the statutory minimum and collect premiums based on that sum, it is unjust to require the companies to pay over to the injured party, only the minimum coverage required by the statute.
Arthur Williams
To me, this situation sheds light on how cell phones can be used detrimentally. The state statute says they are allowed to have cell phones on campus. I think it would be better if they did not bring cell phones to school.
Brenda O'connor
The statute appears to cover the conduct of third parties and not pregnant mothers. If you compare statutes from other places, they read significantly different. They clearly would govern the conduct of a pregnant person, but this is not at all clear in Virginia.
Kevin Martingayle
The commission found there was a violation of Ohio's false statements statute. They decided to let the finding stand on its own and not take further action.
Phil Richter
We are bound by the statute with what we can provide. It's quite specific.
Charles Mcdonald
Criminal statute that violates a whole range of protected speech.
Ann Beeson
If you have a statute, it makes someone who could be inclined to do that to think twice.
Joseph Curran
We believe Ms. Frank's initial practice, collecting the amount stated in the statute at the time payment was tendered, was proper.
Robert Mcdonald
I'd like to see Utah correct its error on its own, rather than be forced to do so by a court. The Legislature is betting, potentially, millions of dollars that the Utah statute will stand up in court. Frankly, that's not at all clear.
Kris Kobach
They shut the door of the courtroom in our face and said you're not allowed in. The Legislature wrote the statute to protect themselves from exactly this kind of complaint.
Steve Hinchman
In New Jersey, there are not only statutes making it a crime for law enforcement to leak wire tapped information, but there is also a statute that entitles a person who is damaged by such leaks to recover punitive damages.
Kevin Marino
Under the statute, race has to be a factor. It doesn't have to be the main factor and there were several other reasons why this happened.
Jeff Harrelson
There's no statute that governs me on how I investigate my cases, ... We're all trained to conduct investigations.
John Hobbs
There are so many issues in the case - whether the president was authorized by the Constitution or a statute to set up the commissions, right down to exactly how to fit this kind of a war into the existing laws of war. Most cases have two or three or four issues. This one has 10 or 12, which makes it very hard to handicap.
Richard Lazarus
Under the Louisiana product liability statute, a manufacturer can be held liable for damage caused by a product that is unreasonably dangerous in design.
Dennis Henigan
The way the statute is now, that would be overhead.
Kevin Bloom
A statute like this is much more likely to come out of Europe, where the entertainment industry is not as powerful of a force.
Mike Goodman
Since the money laundering statute and the conspiracy statute are both parts of the penal code, no reasons appear why conspiracy to money launder would not be an offense, and this court holds that it is, and was in 2002.
Judge Pat Priest
He said they thought it was a clear-cut case but found one statute that might bind things up. He advised me not to participate.
Tom Eithun
The hunting community has resolved to work to remove this confusing and unworkable law from the statute book and to replace it with a sensible legislation.
Simon Hart
The court denied our petition (to throw the case out because the statute of limitations had expired), so it was a trial or a plea.
Martin Hernandez
If you go back to cases that are older than 1993, there's a strong likelihood that the statute of limitations has run, which means we can't prosecute it.
Bill Mason
Article II will trump anything Congress tries to do through statute.
Kris Kobach
What we've created is an eminent domain act that is one complete statute . . . where people can go and understand what their rights are.
Sen. Susan Garrett
When a statute is presented I'll have something to talk about.
Daren Beaudo
I feel real strong that violence should be in (the statute). We need to give parents a tool to protect their children.
Rep. David Hogue
I take the position that, because of the ex post facto clause, in essence, my client is being held for a crime that is no longer a crime because the statute of limitations has expired.
Darrell Dunham
The statute is very clear that if a county's results are not to us by 5 p.m. Tuesday we shall ignore that county's vote, and the counties need to be very aware of that, ... Candidates asking for recounts need to be aware of that.
Bob Crawford
Not only does it take a statute that was designed to go after the bad guys -- the criminals -- and use it against law enforcement, but it does it in a way that could cost the city hundreds of millions of dollars.
Laurie Levenson
I warmly welcome the news that the meeting in Rome has agreed (to) the terms of a statute to establish the International Criminal Court.
Robin Cook
The flaw in the statute [is] that in all its applications, it operates on a fundamentally mistaken premise that high solicitation costs are an accurate measure of fraud.
Harry A. Blackmun
It is clear to me that the statute takes away any of my discretion as a member of that commission to extend the deadline.
Bob Crawford
Are the people who are getting tax credits still burning their fields? ... There's nothing in statute that says they couldn't.
John Byers
This bill will be challenged as unconstitutional. (The original statute) is drafted for pornography. (Unlike pornography,) violence is a protected form of speech.
Scott Sabey
I think this is good law. At some point in time, we have to say to defendants that if the statute of limitations has run out, it's between you and your maker - or your conscience.
Darrell Dunham
It is too difficult to prove anything in the case. The court might even reject the lawsuit due to the statute of limitations. However, I think, the suit will be heard for one to two years.
Yelena Bazhenova
He was arrested on assault and battery charges under the domestic abuse statute. He was taken to the Forrest County jail. We notified the Dean of Students and coaching staff. The call came from Frat Row.
Bob Hopkins
The statute treats the Boy Scouts and the 4H Club and the church identically. Any organization that was overseeing children is subject to the law.
Marci Hamilton
You would expect a translator to take his lead from the defense lawyer and you would not expect that translator to understand the intricacies of a very broad criminal statute. There is a real issue whether it's even fair to charge, much less convict, someone like him.
Neal Sonnett
The goals of the statute are to minimize the effects of sedimentation across the state due to development.
Mike Goodson
We've said all along that federal law requires provisional ballots and the statute was crystal clear on that. This certainly calls into question whether the DOJ is gong to pre-approve the secretary of state's voter manual.
Tim Nelson
New Jersey is entitled to the full amount because we did diligently enforce our statute.
Peter Aseltine
The concept is fine. We are concerned about it being a neutral statute. If you're going to have a restriction on speech, it has to be content neutral. It has to be reasonable. It can't be too broad. The main concern is that it specifically only protects or creates a zone around funerals involving the military.
Ben Stone
A regime of fixed foreign-exchange rates and obligations to intervene would encroach upon the statute of the ECB and the priority of price stability.
Otmar Issing
The state needs to be held to their burden of proving every particular element of the statute as it references the definitions of explosives. The law's definition of explosives is ironically applicable to both explosives and fireworks.
Stephan Seeger
Because of privacy issues, we only get involved when there is some suspicion on the part of the blood bank, and that's why our officers were notified. As far as anyone can remember, this is the first time this statute has ever been applied to a blood bank case in the greater Boise area.
Lynn Hightower
The district is following state statute. The law does not give a district flexibility on how a child tests. It's age-specific.
Lisa Gross
The statute itself is so overly restrictive, he's being denied due process.
Joseph Abood
He violated the Michigan gambling law that which regulates the use of gaming and casinos in the state. Essentially, by being on his computer placing a bet and gambling while in the state of Michigan, he went against Michigan statute, which regulates and controls gambling.
Nate Bailey
[The statute] has been resurrected to discriminate. Even if it was even-handedly applied, it is without doubt unconstitutional now.
Charles Wagner
I think they said they were looking to read the law more aggressively than it has ever been read before. It was a mistake for them to pursue this matter. They ignored the original intent of the statute.
Steve Ross
Reinforce the governor's emergency powers to set anything aside -- state and federal statute and regulation -- that stands in the way of quick recovery.
Pete Wilson
This is the way your office has chosen to define injury, not what the statute says.
Thomas Marten
Should the government give the nod to the agreement, we are worried that we (Indonesia) will never ratify the Rome Statute, which is considered a vital foundation for countries once ruled by authoritarian regimes to move toward democracy.
Usman Hamid
The law does not reach private organizations, even when they are performing public or quasi-public functions. I think that is a downfall of our statute.
Amanda Martin
There's a slayer statute that says if you murder somebody else, you don't inherit from their estate. But if he was involved [in the embezzlement], then that's why you have to include everything, because he could be liable [if] he was an accessory to the crime.
Melissa Walker
There's a distinct possibility of a constitutional infirmity in our statute.
Bob Dillinger
A lot of lawyers are going to be arguing over this. I think what we all would like to see is for the Legislature to meet and pass a comprehensive statute that addresses all these issues, and not an order that was written on an emergency basis.
Frank White
A statute passed by the people has more power than a statute passed by the Legislature.
Karen Holgate
If you'll read the statute, it says there is one certification mandated by 5 p.m. seven days after the election, and that's the only one. The only reason there's a second one for overseas absentee ballots is because the federal Congress has stepped in, as they have the right to do, and has said that the states must allow that. But only to that extent.
Barry Richard
Title Two, on the whole, is a good statute. It provides a degree of certainty for service providers, so that they know what their exposures are.
Jonathan Band
There's a statute that says we're exempt from impact fees. Period.
Dennis Alfonso
There's a document that is by statute in all three jurisdictions-—-Maryland, D.C. and Virginia-—-that can be prepared and executed. A body disposition document gives whoever you choose to make decisions at your funeral. It's legally enforceable and that's the document that everybody should have.
Michele Zavos
The state Supreme Court did not pay much attention to the federal statute. It was obviously aware of it.
Theodore Olson
I think most legal scholars believe the South Dakota statute has a very remote chance of being upheld - a snowball entering a warm location in its chance of survival.
Michael Myers
Theoretically, as long as we have waste in place, the statute says we need to do five-year reviews.
David Sternberg
There is no criminal statute that says you can't put your hand in a certain position, ... We just try to recognize gang membership at its early stages.
Robert Sherwood
This is a significant departure from previous precedent, and appears to contradict the language and spirit of the statute.
Paul Kanjorski
If you only read half the statute, you can come to that conclusion (that expert fees are not allowed). We think their reading overlooks half the statute.
David Vladeck
Under the state's grandfathering statute, you can only avoid current regulations and fall under older, and typically weaker regulations, if you're building the same project that was started at the on-set.
Bill Bunch
A 13-year-old is too young to consent (to sexual intercourse). It is a statute. It is a good thing.
Janine D'anniballe
This will simply allow the board and residents to get some initial input on what is being proposed. There is a new state statute that says we can hear presentations before there is an application.
Mark Weaver
The court dismissed the negligent supervision and other state law claims because they were barred by sovereign immunity. The federal court subsequently dismissed the federal law claims that we alleged under 42 U.S.C. 1983, because of the shortened statute of limitations that applied to claims under that statute.
J. Tyler Makepeace
There is no statute of limitation on this. We will look back for the full time period that a person has been living at that address.
Chris Ouellette
It is a priority. In states where the statute calls for victims of crime to retreat, we think that that's wrong.
Andrew Arulanandam
We have a gambling statute, so the tool exists, but we haven't found to date a Pennsylvania-based operation. Our focus would be on the organizers.
Nils Frederiksen
The heart and soul of this statute needs to be rewritten. I'm talking about down to the fundamental issue what is or what is not a campaign contribution.
Terry Scarborough
I think a reading of the statute supports that it has to pay something for on-reservation children.
Jay Bender
If anyone doesn't think that the medical malpractice system in Wisconsin isn't melting down, they're just not paying attention. We've lost the cap, and in this case, we've lost the only protection that remained, which was the statute of limitations.
Eric Borgerding
The 20-year minimum, it actually goes back, it's a Jessie James statute, back in the stage coach days when they used to rob stage coaches for the mail.
Ed Moffitt
That statute certainly calls into question our ability to move those plaques.
