SCOTUS to hear Sex Offender Case
The Supreme Court of the US has agreed to hear a sex offender case., Gundy v. United States.
The issues in the case are:
(1) Whether convicted sex offenders are “required to register” under the federal Sex Offender Notification and Registration Act while in custody, regardless of how long they have until release; (2) whether all offenders convicted of a qualifying sex offense prior to SORNA’s enactment are “required to register” under SORNA no later than August 1, 2008; (3) whether a defendant travels in interstate commerce for purposes of 18 U.S.C. § 2250(a) when his only movement between states occurs while he is in the custody of the Federal Bureau of Prisons and serving a prison sentence; and (4) whether SORNA’s delegation of authority to the attorney general to issue regulations under 42 U.S.C. § 16913 violates the nondelegation doctrine.
NOTE: only (4) is being taken up by the SCOTUS

BTW FAC – for about 2 weeks I have only been receiving the weekly update. I thought that it had just been really quiet but now I see it was not – I just was not getting notices. Normally I get new post notices and notices when someone replies to a thread. I also get a notice when I sign up under a new post to confirm that I want to subscribe to that notice. I am not getting those any more. Has this happened to anyone else or is it perhaps on my end?
Nothing has changed on our end. If it has on yours contact membership@ and ask them to look into.
