Frankly I don't see why the City didn't just refer the question as to whether the deal is constitutional to an Arizona court at the onset and avoid the whole pissing contest with GWI to begin with (or can they do that? I know gov't has done that in Canada). I mean it's not like anyone wouldn't have seen this coming a mile away given all that's happened over the past several years.
My guess is their own lawyers told them they would probably lose.
