Constitutional Law - Police Power - Equal Protection - Voluntary Deviate Sexual Intercourse Statute, Louis Bader

Duquesne Law Review

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has held that the Pennsylvania voluntary deviate sexual intercourse statute is beyond the valid exercise of the state's police power and is violative of the equal protection clauses of the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Commonwealth v. Bonadio, 490 Pa. 91, 415 A.2d 47 (1980).
