Some Thoughts on the Emerging Irrebuttable Presumption Doctrine	1974	18	.pdf	application/pdf	7681	300	47	When fundamental rights are involved, or when discrimination on the basis of suspect cri- teria exists, current equal protection doctrine would prohibit imprecision even if an opportunity to rebut the classificatory pre- sumption were afforded, unless compelling state interests could be identified which would support imprecision.^^ With the demise of Lochner v. New YorJc,^^ it was generally felt that, in most areas of state legislation, overbreadth, even if accompanied by irrebuttable classifications or presumptions, was acceptable within generous bounds of rationality.^^ Only selected areas relating to fundamental rights under the Constitution, such as the right to free speech, needed the greater protection afforded by a requirement that statutory classifications be accurately drawn and narrowly tailored to further important state interests.	cache/inlawrev-2086.pdf	txt/inlawrev-2086.txt
