Supreme Court of the United States

United States v. Juvenile Male

June 7, 2010177 L. Ed. 2d 64

Summary

The Supreme Court certified a question to the Montana Supreme Court to determine whether this case remains live after the respondent’s federal juvenile supervision expired. The Ninth Circuit previously held that retroactive SORNA registration violated the Ex Post Facto Clause, but the Supreme Court found the issue moot unless Montana law imposes independent registration duties.
