State (League) in which the court misinterpreted its judicial function as it ignored the text of Washington State's constitution and held a statute unconstitutional. Topics discussed include the background of League case and constitutional interpretation in Washington, the League court's reasoning and analytical framework for constitutional analysis through the reformed beyond-a-reasonable-doubt doctrine.
