2/6/2013: No Published Supreme Court Criminal Opinions

However, the court did grant review in a number of cases, including these two:

State v. Wenthe, about which I wrote here.  The court of appeals reversed Mr. Wenthe's conviction.  The state sought review of that reversal and the defense sought review on the facial constitutionality (Establishment Clause) of Minn.Stat. 609.344, subd. 1(1).

State v. Juarez, review granted of an unpublished opinion of the court of appeals, available here.  The issue is the constitutionality of life without possibility of release for certain repeat sex offenders under Minn.Stat. 609.3455, subd. 2(a)(2).
