2001The Ninth Circuit stated: “[W]hen we contrast the claim presented here with that of the three principal Supreme Court cases discussing withholding of rights or benefits as a result of interstate migration, we find that the absence of a political or residential relation between the claimant and the state, the absence of a durational residency requirement, and the fact that eligibility is not based upon need are all factors which detract from the strength of the claim to such an extent that the statutory classification does not burden the right of travel in a manner requiring strict scrutiny.” (

People v. Poslof green

1 sentence

2009The defendant in Poslof registered an address in Merced County but then purchased a house in San Bernardino County. ( Id. at p. 96.) At trial the defendant contended that his San Bernardino County house was not his residence because he had not stayed there for five consecutive working days, and he proposed a jury instruction to that effect, which the trial court rejected. ( Id. at p. 97.) We affirmed the trial court's rejection because the five-working-day timeframe was the grace period for registering changes and not a durational residency requirement under the statute. ( Id. at pp. 101-103.)
