UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent. _________ On Writ of Certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ames Circuit _________ BRIEF FOR RESPONDENT _________ Counsel for Respondent: ORAL ARGUMENT: CAROLINE J. ANDERSON MATTHEW R. GREENFIELD NOVEMBER 17, 2011 STEPHEN M. PEZZI 7:30 P.M. MITCHELL REICH AMES COURTROOM STEPHANIE SIMON HARVARD LAW SCHOOL NOAH M. WEISS The Belva Ann Lockwood Memorial Team QUESTIONS PRESENTED I. Does Petitioner’s knowingly false claim that he received the Navy Cross merit constitutional protection? II. Does a forfeited allocution error merit resentencing, despite Petitioner’s inability to show that the error affected the outcome or fairness of the proceeding? i TABLE OF CONTENTS QUESTIONS PRESENTED ........................................................................................... i TABLE OF CONTENTS ................................................................................................ ii TABLE OF AUTHORITIES ......................................................................................... iv OPINIONS BELOW ....................................................................................................... 1 STATEMENT OF JURISDICTION .............................................................................. 2 CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS ............................................. 3 STATEMENT OF THE CASE ....................................................................................... 4 SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT ............................................................................... 9 ARGUMENT ................................................................................................................ 12 I. The First Amendment does not protect Petitioner’s knowing lie about receiving the Navy Cross. ................................................................................. 12 A. Knowing lies about receiving military medals are categorically unprotected by the First Amendment. ....................................................... 12 1. This Court has recognized a long tradition of proscribing falsehoods, subject to two considerations. .......................................... 14 2. The narrow category of lies about receiving military medals belongs to this tradition of proscription. ............................................. 17 a. Protecting false statements about receiving military medals is not necessary to give breathing room to speech that matters. ..... 18 b. The government has a legitimate interest in preserving the integrity of the medals system. ...................................................... 20 3. Finding Petitioner’s lies categorically unprotected will not lead to an unacceptable slippery slope or draw impermissible content­based distinctions. .................................................................. 22 ii B. Alternatively, Petitioner’s lie was integral to the criminal act of impersonation. ............................................................................................ 25 C. The Act is narrowly tailored to advance the compelling state interest in protecting the military medals system. ................................... 28 1. The state has a compelling interest in protecting the integrity of the system of military medals. ......................................... 28 2. A ban on knowingly false statements regarding military medals is narrowly tailored to advance the state interest. ................ 29 II. Notwithstanding the district court’s failure to personally address Petitioner, the sentence should be affirmed. .................................................... 33 A. This Court should review Petitioner’s claim under Rule 52(b)’s plain­error analysis because he failed to object in the district court. ...... 34 B. Plain­error analysis supports Petitioner’s sentence because the error was innocuous. ................................................................................... 39 1. The error did not affect any substantial right. ................................... 40 a. Petitioner must show a reasonable probability of prejudice to prevail. ........................................................................................ 41 b. Presumptive or not, prejudice did not result from the error in this case. ..................................................................................... 44 2. The error did not seriously affect the fairness, integrity or public reputation of the proceedings below. ....................................... 48 CONCLUSION ............................................................................................................. 51 APPENDIX ................................................................................................................... 52 iii TABLE OF AUTHORITIES Cases Arbaugh v.

  • Perjury and False Witness in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages
    Perjury and False Witness in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages by Nicholas Brett Sivulka Wheeler A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Nicholas Brett Sivulka Wheeler 2018 Perjury and False Witness in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages Nicholas Brett Sivulka Wheeler Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto 2018 Abstract This dissertation, ‘Perjury and False Witness in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages’, investigates changing perceptions of perjury and false witness in the late antique and early medieval world. Focusing on primary sources from the Latin-speaking, western Roman empire and former empire, approximately between the late third and seventh centuries CE, this thesis proposes that perjury and false witness were transformed into criminal behaviours, grave sins, and canonical offences in Latin legal and religious writings of the period. Chapter 1, ‘Introduction: The Problem of Perjury’s Criminalization’, calls attention to anomalies in the history and historiography of the oath. Although the oath has been well studied, oath violations have not; moreover, important sources for medieval culture – Roman law and the Christian New Testament – were largely silent on the subject of perjury. For classicists in particular, perjury was not a crime, while oath violations remained largely peripheral to early Christian ethical discussions. Chapter 2, ‘Criminalization: Perjury and False Witness in Late Roman Law’, begins to explain how this situation changed by documenting early possible instances of penalization for perjury. Diverse sources such as Christian martyr acts, provincial law manuals, and select imperial ii and post-imperial legislation suggest that numerous cases of perjury were criminalized in practice.

THE CRIMINALIZATION OF LYING: UNDER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES, IF ANY, SHOULD LIES BE MADE CRIMINAL? BRYAN H. DRUZIN∗ & JESSICA LI** This Article argues that lying should be a crime. In doing so, we propose the creation of a wholly new category of crime, which we term “egregious lying causing serious harm.” The Article has two broad objectives: the first is to make the case why such a crime should even exist, and the second is to flesh out how this crime might be constructed. The main contribution of the Article lies in the radical nature of its stated aim: the outright criminalization of certain kinds of lies.

In a tabloid sense, of course, the topic of Evil! is a perennial favorite. But this was an attempt to give the subject a breadth, and especially a depth, of treatment that was altogether exceptional in American journalism before the September 11, 2001 attack. From the beginning, author Ron Rosenbaum lets us know that he is dealing with the real thing.

THERE WOULD SEEM TO BE FITNESS, IN THIS HUMBLE WAY, IN LINKING THE NAME OF THE ONE WITH THE MEMORY OF THE OTHER. INTRODUCTION. THE life of Linton Stephens was one of character rather than of incident—more the life of a thinker than an actor upon the stage of human affairs. He chose to be a spectator of passing events, and was content to weigh their significance and watch their succession through the “loopholes of retreat,” so as not “to feel the pressure of the crowd.” He had little relish for the hot arena of the world-strife.

  • How Much Does Speech Matter?
    HOW MUCH DOES SPEECH MATTER? SPEECH MATTERS: ON LYING, MORALITY, AND THE LAW. By Seana Valentine Shiffrin. Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press. 2014. Pp. xi, 223. $35.00. Reviewed by Leslie Kendrick Americans love their free speech. “Americans are freer to think what we will and say what we think than any other people,”1 and we are not going to let anyone forget it. We are swift to accuse others of violating our First Amendment rights, even when the alleged infring- ers are not part of the government, the only entity actually constrained by the First Amendment.2 We are eager to rest on free speech claims and, where they do not exist, to make them.3 With a reliability ap- proaching that of the laws of physics, we may set it down that when- ever the First Amendment can be invoked, it will be invoked. Despite our insistence on our right to speak our minds, we are also a society of liars. Our liars are on display in a regular public cycle of untruths, both flagrant and furtive, followed by gleeful exposures.4 ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Albert Clark Tate, Jr., Professor of Law, University of Virginia School of Law. Special thanks to Matthew Levinton for excellent research assistance; to Fred Schauer, for offering help- ful comments on yet another first draft; to Micah Schwartzman, who talked through every step of this project but was too sincere to join it when it clashed with his views on sincerity; and to Seana Shiffrin, for responding generously to a draft of this review, and for writing the book and enabling this exchange.

  • 2019 Marketing Microstrategies We’Ve Lived in an Age of Accelerations for the Past Decade
    2019 Marketing Microstrategies We’ve lived in an Age of Accelerations for the past decade. The sheer speed at which technology, media, marketing and medicine are changing is bringing new hope, new opportunities, new possibilities…and so many new distractions. In fact, what it often feels like is that we live in an Age of Congestion—where just breaking through and earning a clear lane of attention can feel impossible. How do some brands break through while others are overrun by the noise and competition for time and attention? We identified 40 microstrategies brands are using today to connect with people in innovative and unexpected ways. This tool kit will help you begin to answer critical planning questions like: • What do people want right now? • How do we better connect with them and engage them? • How can we excel in their channels of choice? Decoding these new strategies is about more than understanding the healthcare space. It’s about understanding how brands around the world are resetting customer experiences for everything from engagement to education to ongoing support. That’s important because [insert your healthcare brand here] likely does not think of Starbucks as a competitor. But it’s companies like Starbucks that are actively shaping people’s expectations for how a company should behave and engage with its customer base. In fact, your healthcare customer’s expectations are constantly being reshaped, rewired and remodeled by new and innovative experiences with brands, media, peers and technology. Brands that don’t deliver experiences that meet or exceed these rapidly changing expectations are increasingly being ignored, brushed aside or deemed irrelevant.
