Jeff walked down the steps of the courthouse with pride. He had just won a landmark courtcase in the wake of the Great Shift. In a tight 5-4 Supreme Court decision, it was granted that the former occupants of bodies had no rights over how their new owners treated said body. Jeff had taken up a job as a stripper, despite being in the body of a figurehead of the religious right, who claimed her reputation was forever tarished. The Court's majoritiy decision stated that the Shift was a massive worldwide occurance, no reasonable person could deny its impact. Furthermore, it would be impacting on a person's freedoms to have to live according to someone else's beliefs.
