Here's a note on wikipedia about the "judge" in that case: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Mahoney
He was a Justice of the Peace. The jury found there was no consideration. If this truly was a jury of Daly's peers than you can rest assured they were just as nutty as him. The decision was overturned by other courts and is not good precedent for anything. |
I couldn't find anything about overturns on appeal at a higher level, and you'd know better then me, but aren't justice of the peace elected down in the states and don't really have to have any basis in Law?
