High court dilemma: Can lie about medal be crime?

[ConHog]

I think they have a high hurdle to meet when implementing a law like this.



Trademark might be an acceptable standard but there is no standard required for recipients to continue upholding that I'm aware of. If I claim to have won a Pulitzer do they have recourse against me?

If they used their alleged Medal of Honor to gain something of value then I could maybe see this being illegal. Otherwise , it's just scummy.
