Judge Strikes Blow Against the Nanny State: NY Sugary Drinks Ban Stopped

Well I guess Bloomberg has to stop New Yorkers from getting fat in some other way.

State Supreme Court Justice Milton Tingling in Manhattan ruled the new regulations are "fraught with arbitrary and capricious consequences. The simple reading of the rule leads to the earlier acknowledged uneven enforcement even within a particular city block, much less the city as a whole ... the loopholes in this rule effectively defeat the state purpose of the rule."

I'm still not sure what Starbucks would have had to do to comply with this ban. I guess there would be no Grande or Venti sizes. Also what if you ordered a Grande Latte with a sugary add-in like Mocha or Vanilla? What about Frappicinos? Also if you went to Shake Shack would you be able to order anything to drink? This is one of those checks on governmental overreach the the judiciary branch is made for.
