Maryland Spam Law Held Constitutional

Today's Sun reports that the Maryland Court of Special Appeals has overturned a 2004 decision by a Montgomery County judge that declared Maryland's anti-spam law unconstitutional. At issue in the case, Marycle LLC v. First Choice Internet Inc., is whether the Maryland Commercial Electronic Mail Act, Commercial Law Article 14-3001, violates the Commerce Clause, Article I, Sect. 8, Clause 3 of the US Constitution. The Montgommery County judge ruled that it did; the decision today rules that it does not.
