Court orders food stamps for Muscatine couple
A U S District Court judge in Des Moines issued a temporary restraining order allowing Michael and Vicki Fordham to buy food stamps despite a law blocking households with an adult claimed as a dependent by another household. The case argues the statute is unconstitutional, with Fordham 16 and Vicki 18, income about 20 dollars weekly. The order halts enforcement until a three judge panel decides the law's constitutionality.
