Judge Ronald Leighton made the ruling. He was nominated for the court by the first President Bush and- not to his credit- then Senator Joe Biden froze the vote till Bush lost his re-election bid and a Democrat could be appointed.
President Bush the Second re-nominated Leighton and he was confirmed to the office.
Leighton is as solid a conservative Republican as they come. But maybe he learned some things over that decade waiting for another shot at the bench from a family member.
