Spannaus Says Rights Debate In Studded Tire Case Heads To Courts
Minnesota Attorney General Warren Spannaus said the constitutional rights issue in the studded tire controversy belongs to the courts. He noted the 1969 study on studded tires, completed in 1971, and said the legislature likely did not intend the law to operate beyond the study period. The matter arose after a St Paul prosecutor questioned the law's effective dates for visitors from neighboring states.
