What is the current state of the law in the context of Section 803 of the Criminal Code, and what is the effect of the legislation on the law itself?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from Soria v. Oxnard School District Board of Trustees, 467 F.2d 59 (9th Cir. 1972):
In sum, one legislator may have described the situation most aptly when she said, while feeling that 803 would apply in such cases as this one, that "the record is clouded."6 In any event, this dispute points up the difficulty of attempting authoritatively to construe an at-best ambiguous statute on the basis of floor debates involving individual congressmen.7 Cf. United States v. Bass, 404 U.S. 336, 92 S.Ct. 515, 30 L. Ed.2d 488 (1971).
