Judge voids draft registration law over improper enactment
A federal judge in Los Angeles ruled the 1980 draft registration law was illegally promulgated and dismissed charges against David Wayte, citing a 21 day gap from publication to effect and questioning Carter era waiver claims. The decision could affect multiple prosecutions tied to draft opposition. The ruling prompts an appeal by Justice Department lawyers to the 9th Circuit.
