    SCOTUS Decision with Implications for Enforcement of Regulations

    Yesterday, the SCOTUS handed down a decision holding that the excessive fines clause of the 8th applies to the States. Timbs v. Indiana. The fact scenario involved the seizure of a Land Rover from a drug dealer, which leads me to think it will have some implication on the enforcement of...

    Maybe this year I finally go out west--Seeking Recommendations

    Today (March 4, 2016) NPR's "Here and Now" is having Rep. Bishop from Utah detail his proposals for new land management in the west--arguing that the federal government is ill equipped to manage federal public lands. Hopefully they will present the other side of the issue as well.
