Ind. Decisions - Still more on federal Judge Tinder's wine shipping decision
Another editorial today lauding Judge Tinder's ruling in the wine shipping case, this time from the Indianapolis Star, headed "Decision to end ban goes down like fine wine."
For the ruling and background, see this ILB entry from August 29th.
[More] "The Wine Guy" in Zionsville gives his take on Judge Tinder's ruling here, concluding:
I'm no lawyer, but it appears that until the wholesaler's lobby comes up with another trick, Tinder's order stops the state from enforcing the rules he declared to be unconstitutional. So, now you do not have to appear in person at the winery to place your first order and you now can order wines from wineries that are already distributed in Indiana. Kind of makes you glad we have that third branch of government... one that lobbyists can't influence!
