The question is: Would such a law withstand a legal challenge?

Because it was well thought out, the law has withstood many court challenges.

The laws have withstood major legal challenges, including arguments that locking up a criminal after he has served his sentence amounts to double jeopardy.

The counsel to the Legislature, Paul Sabatino 2d, said he was confident, however, that the law would withstand a legal battle.

In Indiana and Minnesota, for instance, laws have withstood challenges and are cited as models for the new wave of legislation around the country.

This law has already withstood challenge in both the District Court of Arizona and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals.

The companies maintain that a federal law not only barring future suits but also voiding those already filed would withstand challenge.

Over the summer, as I reported here, union-busting law withstood a strong legal challenge in Wisconsin's supreme court.

Still, the laws have withstood court challenges.

Although challenged several times in the courts, the laws creating the Miami Conservancy District withstood those attacks, and since have withstood the tests of time.
