The Georgia Supreme Court's 5-2 ruling Monday found that it is of ``no consequence whether or not one has committed an offense that is 'sexual' in nature before being required to register.''
The challenge was brought by Jake Rainer, who pleaded guilty to false imprisonment and robbery in 2001 to robbing a 17-year-old girl after arranging to buy some drugs from her.
He contended he should not have to register as a sex offender because the crime did not involve any sexual activity.
