That's not the law that Reagan signed, the Child Abuse Amendments of 1984.

I thought those Amendments were additions to that section (504) of the law. If I'm mistaken, I apologize.

I'm not sure where the ammendments were added, but their intent was to tighten up the law in response to the appeals court loss.

Basically Congress realizing the appeal was going to lose again at the USSC, so fix it now. Of course the original case continued on and was finalized two years after the new law fixed that wagon.
