One day after its Lawrence v. Texas ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court remands the case of Matthew Limon to the Kansas Court of Appeals. Limon was sentenced to 17 years in prison for engaging in consensualoral sex with a 14-year-old boy when he was 18 years old. Kansaslaw treats homosexual acts differently from heterosexual ones; had he engaged in sex with a girl, he would have been sentenced to 13 to 15 months, possibly without serving any time at all. Lawrence v. Texas calls into question the constitutionality of laws that discriminate between homosexual and heterosexual acts. [3]
