Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act violates Due Process

Question Presented (from Petition)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 1. Whether the Maritime Drug Law Enforcement Act (“MDLEA”), 46 U.S.C. §70501, et. seqg., violates Due Process because its enforcement procedures are vague and ambiguous. 2. Whether the MDLEA violates Due Process because it violates Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966), when an individual is detained on board a vessel declared “stateless” under 46 U.S.C. §70502(d)(1)(B). 3. Whether the MDLEA violates Due Process because the Government is not required to prove any “minimum contacts” or “nexus” between a defendant and the United States to establish jurisdiction over the cause. i INTERESTED
