What next? Court-ordered divorces? Court-ordered abortions?

A judge has ruled that a 24-year-old man is not allowed to have a girlfriend for the next three years.

The ruling came after Steven Cranley pleaded guilty on Tuesday to several charges stemming from an assault on an ex-girlfriend.

His lawyer says the no-girlfriend order is the first of its kind that he has encountered.

Cranley is probably a scumbag, based upon the charges he pled guilty to – and no woman with a lick of sense should go near him. But at what point do we say “WHOA!” to a judge’s power to impose unusual conditions in a sentence – especially when they impact intimate personal relationships?
