Chapter 3
Can you think of an example of an ex post facto law?
Can a municipality enforce an ordinance totally banning religious organizations from canvassing
neighborhoods in search of new members? What about an ordinance that prohibits such
canvassing between the hours of 8 P.M. and 8 A.M.?
How does the doctrine of judicial review affect the power of a state legislature to define
criminal conduct? Would the constitutional limitations on legislative power be effective without
the power of courts to declare laws unconstitutional?
Chapter 4
Distinguish between the concepts of motive and intent in the criminal law. Can you cite and
instance where, despite good motives, a person would be guilty of a crime?
Is there a justification for the criminal law not punishing a person for failing to act when there is
a clear moral duty to act?
Chapter 5
What justifies criminalizing attempt, solicitation, and conspiracy?
Should statutes defining conspiracy require proof of an overt act in furtherance of the
conspirators’ agreement? Why or why not?
Given the First Amendment protections of freedom of expression and association, can
members of a revolutionary political organization be prosecuted for conspiring to overthrow
the government of the United States?
