Published under license with Merriam-Webster, Incorporated. With regard to statutes that fix criminal sentences,1110 the Court has explained that the law must specify the range of available sentences with sufficient clarity.1111 For example, in Johnson v. United States, after years of litigation on the meaning and scope of the residual clause of the Armed Career Criminal Act of 1984 (ACCA),1112 the Court concluded that the clause in question was void for vagueness.1113 In relevant part, the ACCA imposes an increased prison term upon a felon who is in possession of a firearm, if that felon has previously been convicted for a violent felony, a term defined by the statute to include burglary, arson, or extortion, [a crime that] involves use of explosives, or crimes that fall within the residual clausethat is, crimes that otherwise involve[] conduct that presents a serious potential risk of physical injury to another.1114 In Johnson, prosecutors sought an enhanced sentence for a felon found in possession of a firearm, arguing that one of the defendants previous crimesunlawful possession of a short-barreled shotgun qualified as a violent felony because the crime amounted to one that involve[d] conduct that presents a serious potential risk of physical injury to another.1115 To determine whether a crime falls within the residual clause, the Court had previously endorsed a categorical approachthat is, instead of looking to whether the facts of a specific offense presented a serious risk of physical injury to another, the Supreme Court had interpreted the ACCA to require courts to look to whether the underlying crime falls within a category such that the ordinary case of the crime would present a serious risk of physical injury.1116 The Court in Johnson concluded that the residual clause was unconstitutionally vague because the clauses requirement that courts determine what an ordinary case of a crime entails led to grave uncertainty about (1) how to estimate the risk posed by the crime and (2) how much risk was sufficient to qualify as a violent felony.1117 For example, in determining whether attempted burglary ordinarily posed serious risks of physical injury, the Court suggested that reasonable minds could differ as to whether an attempted burglary would typically end in a violent encounter, resulting in the conclusion that the residual clause provided no reliable way to determine what crimes fell within its scope.1118 In so holding, the Court relied heavily on the difficulties that federal courts (including the Supreme Court) have had in establishing consistent standards to adjudge the scope of the residual clause, noting that the failure of persistent efforts to establish a standard can provide evidence of vagueness.1119, Entrapment.Certain criminal offenses, because they are consensual actions taken between and among willing parties, present police with difficult investigative problems.1120 Thus, in order to deter such criminal behavior, police agents may encourage persons to engage in criminal behavior, such as selling narcotics or contraband,1121 or they may may seek to test the integrity of public employees, officers or public officials by offering them bribes.1122 In such cases, an entrapment defense is often made, though it is unclear whether the basis for the defense is the Due Process Clause, the supervisory authority of the federal courts to deter wrongful police conduct, or merely statutory construction (interpreting criminal laws to find that the legislature would not have intended to punish conduct induced by police agents).1123, The Court has employed the so-called subjective approach in evaluating the defense of entrapment.1124 This subjective approach follows a two-pronged analysis. 822 545 U.S. at 759. 1089 See United States v. Beckles, 580 U.S. ___, No. A review by an appellate court of the final judgment in a criminal case, however grave the offense of which the accused is convicted, was not at common law and is not now a necessary element of due process of law.

However, an instruction on the presumption of innocence need not be given in every case. The fact that the plaintiff did not have minimum contacts with the forum state was not dispositive since the relevant inquiry is the relations among the defendant, the forum, and the litigation.948 Or, damage done to the plaintiffs reputation in his home state caused by circulation of a defamatory magazine article there may justify assertion of jurisdiction over the out-of-state authors of such article, despite the lack of minimum contact between the authors (as opposed to the publishers) and the state.949 Further, though there is no per se rule that a contract with an out-of-state party automatically establishes jurisdiction to enforce the contract in the other partys forum, a franchisee who has entered into a franchise contract with an out-of-state corporation may be subject to suit in the corporations home state where the overall circumstances (contract terms themselves, course of dealings) demonstrate a deliberate reaching out to establish contacts with the franchisor in the franchisors home state.950, The Court has continued to wrestle over when a state may adjudicate a products liability claim for an injury occurring within it, at times finding the defendants contacts with the place of injury to be too attenuated to support its having to mount a defense there. v. Loudermill, 470 U.S. 532 (1985). This type of jurisdiction is often referred to as specific jurisdiction..
