Chicanery or not, it was bound to be said by many judges. Saying it ain’t getting it. Remember SB 10? The Legislature ain’t buying what Wiley is selling.

I hope you are right. So far, I think we're okay. But if you look at the concurrences, you see two distinct things. Justice Groban correctly notes that everything the District Attorneys wanted is covered by the existing framework.

But Justice Wiley, visiting from a lower court, where things have been a little more iffy — after all, that's where we got _Kowalczyk_ in the first place — said, "I miss being a prosecutor! I want to use my concurrence illicitly to lobby the Legislature!"

Hopefully, that lobbying falls on deaf ears.
