Midterm ExamCriminal Law LA 531aFall 2026Professor Kevin Holsclaw   The senior partner in your law firm has asked you to interview a client who is currently a resident of the county jail. During the interview you have discovered the following facts: The client was driving around a neighborhood one afternoon where the rich and famous live. He noticed a Bugatti sports car parked at the curb in front of one of the residences. So, he decided to stop and take a look at the world’s most expensive vehicle. To his surprise the car was unlocked. So, he opened the latch on the door and immediately reached into the glove compartment and retrieved a pair of Chopard-De Rigo sunglasses. He had just read an article in GQ about how the collaboration of these two vision companies had produced a product that retailed for $400,000 per pair. So, he put them on, got back in his car, admired himself in his rear-view mirror, and took off. Later that night our client went to a local bar and dance club, donning his new shades with the misplaced confidence of a rock star. Within minutes of his arrival our client was confronted by Bobby, the leader of a local gang. Bobby laughed at our client and told him that he looked like a Ray Charles “wanabe.” Bobby then tore the glasses from our client’s face while Bobby’s crew wrestled our client to the floor. Bobby walked off with the expensive glasses. Feeling disrespected and humiliated, our client immediately left the club and retrieved a gun from his apartment. When he returned to the club Bobby was no longer there. However, our client knew that Bobby would likely be cruising the boulevard in his vintage 1957 Chevy. So, our client headed for the boulevard and located Bobby. Our client then pulled up next to the Chevy and started shooting into the driver’s side window and hit Bobby in the head, killing him instantly. The next day one of Bobby’s crew came across our client on the local basketball courts. As the crew member got within five feet of him, our client pulled a handgun from his coat and told him he would be joining Bobby at the morgue. The crew member immediately fell to the ground covering his head with his hands. Our client then left the basketball court. The senior partner has asked you to draft a memorandum addressing the following issues: (a) the client’s taking of the sunglasses from the sports car; (b) the killing of Bobby; (c) the encounter of our client with the crew member on the basketball court. Assume that this is a modern statutory jurisdiction.

Congress passed Grazer’s Green New Deal (“Act”) due to its concern in the rise of poor air quality, extreme weather outbreaks throughout the country, and individuals developing asthma. The Act provided that the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) was tasked with regulating air pollutants, including greenhouse gasses.  Section 101(a) of the Act required the EPA to establish a national system for regulating air pollutants by instantly checking methane gas emissions.  According to the Act, the EPA was to also require local departments of agriculture for each local jurisdiction to conduct checks and related tasks to determine the total percentage of methane gas omitted by cattle that grazed on all state rancher’s ranches (regardless of the size of the ranch) on an interim basis until the national system of checking methane gas for greenhouse gases became operative.  Section 201(a) of the Act required all local ranchers to include on their online websites an endorsement of the Act including language that shared at least one example of how the Act had reduced the methane gas emissions for that ranch.  The penalty for any rancher failing to include that endorsement was $1,000 payable directly to the EPA.  Section 301(a) of the Act passed by Congress authorizes either the House of Representatives or Congress, by resolution, to allow the Attorney General to continue enforcement of the Act for the purpose of regulating the amount of methane gas emissions even if the Executive Branch opposes this Act.    After Congress passed the Act and before it had gone into effect, there was significant opposition to the legislation.  Rob Wrangler of Wrangler Ranch in Texas filed a lawsuit on behalf of himself seeking an injunction and a declaratory judgment claiming the Act was unconstitutional.  Wrangler Ranch had a large enterprise where all the cattle on the ranch were grass-fed, and the organic beef was then sold to stores in neighboring states who specialized in organic produce and organic meat.  Additionally, Rob Wrangler was president of the local chapter of Ranch and Landowners Association of Texas.  Consequently, his lawsuit also was also filed on behalf of the Association as well as other ranchers who had notified him that they would be negatively affected by the Act and were opposed to its implementation.   Analyze whether this challenge of the constitutionality of the Act will be successful.
