The most that the court is prepared to say is that the state 'might' succeed by seeking a writ of mandamus, and failing that, 'might' be able to mount a constitutional challenge. The court sends the state to traverse a veritable procedural obstacle course in the hope of obtaining a judicial decision on the constitutionality of the relevant provisions of the NVRA. A sensible interpretation of the act would obviate these difficulties."
