El Koussa v. Attorney General

Summary

The Supreme Judicial Court held that the Attorney General properly certified each of the five driver‑related initiative petitions under Article 48 and that the Attorney General’s summaries of those petitions are fair and concise. The Court also found that the petitions’ “sweeteners” do not constitute prohibited logrolling and that their dense technical language does not violate Article 48. Accordingly, the case was remanded for a declaration that the certifications and summaries comply with the constitutional requirements.
