Loopy Laws And Legal Lovers

ABA Publishing

The New Mexico state legislature once considered an amendment to a bill that would have required some expert witnesses in court cases to dress like wizards. 

It didn't become law, but many oddball approaches to the legal system DO get into the books. 

And a new book called runs down some of the highlights... including the "dress like a wizard bill."
