: Lowering the BarAssorted Stupidity #5
By Kevin Underhill

- New York's Appellate Division recently affirmed a conviction that had been vacated two years ago. Slight "communication breakdown" among counsel, apparently.
- Are you a "state actor" for Fourth Amendment purposes just because you dress up like one? Probably not, but that's the least of these defendants' problems.
- On the other hand, if you're talking to people dressed like cops, you should probably assume they are cops when deciding whether to rob the store they're standing in front of. Bonus points: the store is next door to the police station.
