''Doe v. Shurtleff'', 628 F.3d 1217 (10th Cir. 2010), was a United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit case assessing the constitutionality of (Utah Code Ann. § 77-27-21.5 ), a law that requires sex offenders to register their internet identifiers with the state in order to "assist in investigating kidnapping and sex-related crimes, and in apprehending offenders."〔〔(Utah Code Ann. § 77-27-21.5 )〕 In this case, a convicted sex offender, appearing anonymously as John Doe, appealed a (decision ) by the United States District Court for the District of Utah to vacate an order enjoining the enforcement of Utah Code Ann. § 77-27-21.5. Even though Doe did not dispute the state's interest in enacting such a statute, he believed that the statute's enforcement ran afoul of his: :# First Amendment right to engage in anonymous speech; :# Fourth Amendment rights to privacy and freedom from unreasonable search and seizure; and :# the Ex Post Facto Clause of the Constitution. Upon examining Doe's appeal, the Tenth Circuit determined that Utah's registration statute did not violate Doe's First or Fourth Amendment rights or the Ex Post Facto Clause, and therefore affirmed the lower court's decision to lift the injunction.〔 ==Background of the case== Doe was convicted by the United States military court system for sex offenses involving a minor and received an 18 month prison sentence. He was released after 13 months' imprisonment and was neither placed on probation nor put on supervised release. However, as a convicted sex offender residing in Utah, Doe was required to register with the Utah Department of Corrections under the (Utah Code Ann. § 77-27-21.5 ). The statute specifically required Doe to provide "'all online identifiers and passwords used to access' websites where he was using an online identifier'". An exception was granted for identifiers associated with employment and financial accounts. Doe refused to register his identifier information and decided to challenge the law.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doe v. Shurtleff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
