That’s an unconstitutional establishment of religion.
“That’s an unconstitutional establishment of religion.”
This story doesn’t involve religion, it involves Islam and Sharia. Your comment makes no sense.
Dontcha think?
Just another Black Robed Mullah on the bench.
Precisely. The judge should be removed from the bench and the order rescinded.
No, it's not. It's a judge enforcing a binding contract, an arbitration contract in this case.
There is a legal principle in contract law called "choice of law". Essentially, it allows for parties to establish what law will apply to the contract that they've executed. It can be a binding arbitration contract, a sales contract, a marriage contract, really any number of contracts have choice of law provisions in them.
For example, many wildly rich people will stipulate in their prenuptial agreements that a certain state's laws will apply in the divorce, irrespective of where the parties actually file for divorce. So, in a community property state like California, it wouldn't at all be unusual for a prenuptial agreement to specify that a more favorable state's domestic law would apply, like Florida's for example.
Virtually every international business contract that is executed in the US today, has one or several choice of law provisions in it; Maybe they're applying German law, or French law and sometimes when doing business with a Middleastern country, there is a sharia law provision. It happens.
It is NOT "sharia law invading the US".
Of course it is. Judge needs to be impeached. Don’t local and state judges swear to uphold the US Constitution?
That should be a no-brainer, but one never knows with the U.S. Supreme Court (where I believe this case will go if higher Florida courts don't reverse this decision).
