The day after Sunny City’s new ordinance became effective, Petunia, a person advocating against abortion, went to an abortion clinic within Sunny City, stood 25 feet from its entrance, stopped the first woman whom she saw about to enter the clinic, and gave her a leaflet espousing Petunia’s religious views and discouraging abortion.

State F located in the southern half of the United States experienced a strong influx of retirees, due in part to its mild winters and in part to the generous health benefits that State F historically provided to its elderly residents who fell below the federal poverty line. State F’s Office of Budget Management determined that the influx of retirees would bankrupt State F’s health care benefit fund within five years. To preserve the fund and ensure the health of its citizens, State F revised its health care statute to make persons ineligible for coverage until they have lived in State F for at least one year.If a retiree, who was denied benefits because she just moved to State F, challenges the constitutionality of the statute in federal court, is she likely to prevail?

Defendant Dan was the high priest of a small cult of Satan worshippers. As a part of the practice of their religious beliefs, a dog was required to be sacrificed to the glory of Satan after a live dissection of the animal in which it endured frightful pain.

Beach City passed an ordinance prohibiting all of its police officers and firefighters from “moonlighting” (working a second job). The ordinance was passed to ensure that all police officers and firefighters were readily available in case an emergency should arise and for overtime work when the situation warranted it. Other Beach City employees, including members of the city council and the city manager, had no such restrictions placed on secondary employment. A police officer who wanted to moonlight as a dancer at a nightclub within Beach City limits brought suit in federal court, alleging that the ordinance violated her constitutional rights.Will the court likely find the ordinance constitutional as applied to the police officer?

Intending to encourage long-time resident aliens to become American citizens, State T passed a law denying numerous state and municipal jobs to persons who had been resident aliens for longer than 10 years. Those already in State T had to apply for American citizenship within a year after the law took effect. Persons who had acquired resident alien status prior to achieving the age of majority had until age 30 to acquire such status or be automatically disqualified from obtaining such a job. A 40-year-old man who has been a resident alien in State T for 15 years applied for a job as a police emergency response telecommunications expert. He had not filed for citizenship within the one-year grace period.May State T constitutionally rely on the statute to refuse to hire the man?

Question 15-autism

State I’s highway speed limits were 65 miles per hour in its flat land regions and 55 miles per hour in its mountainous regions. To reduce traffic fatalities and combat the fact that most of the vehicles on state highways were exceeding posted speed limits, the State I legislature proposed banning the use of radar detectors. Citizens in the mountainous regions of State I, where most of State I’s highway fatalities occurred, generally supported the ban, but citizens in the flat regions of State I opposed the ban, so the legislature adopted a law banning use of radar detectors on any road with a speed limit below 60 miles per hour.Donald, a driver whose car was equipped with a radar detector. lived in the mountainous region of State I but frequently drove to State I’s flat region. While on a mountain highway with a posted speed limit of 55 miles per hour, Donald was pulled over by a State I trooper for speeding. While approaching Donald’s car, the State I trooper noticed that Donald’s radar detector was turned on. The trooper ticketed Donald for both speeding and illegal use of a radar detector. Donald challenges his ticket for use of the radar detector, arguing that it is unfair to allow people in the flat lands to use radar detectors while prohibiting residents of the mountainous region from using them.Which of the following statements is correct regarding the burden of proof in such a case?
