If you are exclusively a ?secondary? producer, and exempt from inspection by virtue of your Free Speech Coalition membership, it is important that you ask your lawyer how to decline the Federal inspection, and notify the FSC office as soon as possible if such an inspection is attempted.

Apparently they feel that Judge Miller's injunction supercedes the new law.
Do any attorneys out there disagree? (I mean industry lawyers, not armchair ones). |
The "new law" - the "Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act", AKA HR 4472 - hasn't been passed by the House or signed by Bush yet.... so as of right now, it's not yet law.
As such, most lawyers are probably hesitant to comment (publicly, anyway) on the Act's potential effect on FSC v. Gonzalez, or the preliminary injunction issued in that case.
The Act is expected to pass this week, and then be signed into law by Bush on 7/27. I checked the House website where they publish the floor proceedings, and it says they've "concluded all anticipated legislative business" for the day and "proceeded to Special Order speeches"."
I'm not sure if that means a vote on 4472 is out of the question for today, though.... we'll see.
