Hmm, well color me confused. That was not a full case cite, so I cannot look up the facts and holding in Time V. Sullivan, but again, those names are both private citizen names, again indicating a civil case. Criminal cases, or any case in which the government is applying force against a citizen would be entitled, State of Idaho (for example) v. Jones, or U.S. vs. Smith.
My original point still stands as far as I can see. Phelps case is purely a civil matter. Money judgments only, no criminal charges, therefore not a situation where we need to worry about the state enforcing ANY laws. Civil torts, not criminal infractions, very big distinction.
