He may argue that while a statute can be read to give the prosecutor a second kick at the cat if conditions change, it cannot be read to allow a court to give the prosecutor a first kick at the cat when conditions change.

To this anticipated argument, we disagree. We wrote K.A.P. We knew what we were saying.

I love how snarky they Supreme Court can be.

Still, I think Scalia's dissenting opinions are my favorite, even if I do tend to disagree with almost everything he says.
