On California prisons, it’s the governor vs. the courts

Barry Krisberg quoted on NPR, April 30, 2013

“The legal arguments that the state is putting forward make no sense,” says Barry Krisberg, who teaches law at the University of California, Berkeley. He says it was unlikely that the same appellate court that ordered the state to reduce its prison population would have a change of heart. “And I don’t see what’s the logic in picking a fight now, particularly a fight you can’t win.”
