Cute.
I like the discussion of the case in the comments at the Volokh Conspiracy.
"Since Goldilocks entered a house, one would assume that she falls under at *least* Criminal Trespass in the 3rd Degree...That’s in New York.YMMV, of course."
"But would Goldilocks have any defense that she acted in the distress of being lost in the woods? Not to mention that as a minor child, it is less likely that she could face prosecution so much as her parent’s could be charged with negligence…"
"Too bad Thomas wasn’t the guest justice; he could have tossed the case on standing, as Little Bear could not have been recognized as a person in 1789 and thus has no rights that the courts are bound to respect."
"I am surprised to learn that Sotomayor is the first SCOTUS justice to appear on the show given that I have all along assumed that Souter was at least half-Muppet."
