“Judges aren’t suppose to be writing state budgets”

It does not appear the judges are doing so in this case. I take it as strictly a ruling that the Governor does not have arbitrary budgeting authority, and that the power rests solely with the legislature.

That is how SC Governor Sanford's refusal to accept federal stimulus money was over turned. Only the legislature has the authority to appropriate funds.
