The Minnesota Supreme Court finally ruled in Al Franken’s favor. It was a per curiam decision. Per curiam means”by the court”. Per curiam decisions are often used in cases where the court feels the case is so bogus that a full fledged opinion is not necessary. But they can also be used to emphasize that the court is speaking with one voice, which presumably is what the court intended here.
This situation has now reached the end-game. Will Coleman pack it in, or continue to take one for the team. His political career is already nearly toast. If he wants to run for governor to replace Pawlenty, he really needs to step aside now.
