Assume the fоllоwing hypоtheticаl fаcts for the three subpаrts below. Please answer all three subparts. On March 1, 2025, the West Virginia state legislature passed a new statute named the "Migratory Bird Protection Act." The statute went into effect on July 1, 2025. The text of this statute states as follows: Section 1: Definitions In this Title: "Migratory bird" – The term “migratory bird” means a bird that crosses parts of the United States during its migrations. "Commits harm" – The term “commits harm” means hunts, shoots, or otherwise takes a migratory bird. Section 2: Prohibiting Harm to Migratory Birds Any individual or entity that commits harm to a migratory bird will be subject to a civil penalty not to exceed $1000 per migratory bird harmed. Additional Background Information (note: this is not included in the statutory text): The term "otherwise takes" is not defined in this statute or in any other relevant statute. No court has yet defined the term “otherwise takes” as used in this statute. The West Virginia had a conference committee report accompanying the statute when the statute was sent for debate and voting (this conference committee report reflected the deliberations of the conference committee of the West Virginia legislature when it recommended to the House and Senate to enact this statute). The report reflects that there was some disagreement about whether to use the term "results in harm" instead of the term "commits harm," but the conference committee report ultimately recommended the language "commits harm" and this was the language voted into law by the West Virginia legislature. The conference committee report also discussed how the purpose of the statute was intended to avoid intentional harm caused to migratory birds, including hunting and poaching. In early 2025, the United Nations published the State of the World’s Migratory Species report. The report indicated that “overexploitation” is the “most common driver of reported impacts” on the migratory birds studied in the report. The report also indicated that overexploitation of birds principally occurs through deliberate harvest, such as hunting and collection. The legislature was aware of this report when it passed the statute. Actions Giving Rise to the Present Situation (note: this is also not included in the statutory text): ACME Oil Company ("ACME") is a company engaged in lawful oil drilling, and as a result of its oil drilling operations, it has a "reserve pit" on its property in West Virginia. In simple terms, a reserve pit is an excavated area used for collecting discarded drilling fluid. If a reserve pit contains oil, it can potentially entrap migratory birds. A couple of endangered migratory birds have been found deceased next to the reserve pit. Presume that ACME’s reserve pit caused the deaths of these migratory birds. As such, the government has alleged that ACME has "committed harm" to these migratory birds in violation of the above statute by maintaining the oil reserve pit on its property. ACME disputes that maintaining a reserve pit violates the statute. Presume you are an attorney for ACME. Based on the facts provided above, please address the following questions (please address each of these in separately labeled paragraphs in your response):* For Subpart 1, prepare arguments explaining why the statute can be interpreted to support ACME’s position that it did NOT violate the statute by maintaining a reserve pit. For this subpart 1 only, presume that the judge hearing the case is a textualist. You need to identify, define, and apply to these facts at least TWO different statutory interpretation techniques, tools, or canons (not theories) that would help support an interpretation of the statute in favor of your client’s (ACME’s) position that it did not violate the statute at issue. The statutory tools or techniques you select to support your client’s position should be tools or canons that are recognized by textualists as useful tools or canons for interpreting a statute. In your response, keep in mind your judge is a textualist, and make sure you (1) identify by name both the techniques, tools, or canons you are utilizing, (2) define both techniques, tools, or canons, and (3) make an argument using those techniques, tools, or canons to support your client’s position that its actions are not in violation of the statute at issue. (2.5 points) For Subpart 2, prepare arguments explaining why the statute can be interpreted to support ACME’s position that it did NOT violate the statute by maintaining a reserve pit. For this subpart 2 only, presume that the judge hearing the case is a purposivist. You need to identify, define, and apply to these facts at least TWO different statutory interpretation techniques, tools, or canons (not theories) that would help support an interpretation of the statute in favor of your client’s (ACME’s) position that it did not violate the statute at issue. The statutory tools or techniques you select to support your client’s position should be tools or canons utilized by purposivist judges. You CANNOT use any of the techniques, tools, or canons that you utilized in response to subpart 1 (even if the tools or canons used above are also used by purposivist judges). In your response, keep in mind that your judge is a purposivist, and make sure you (1) identify by name both the techniques, tools, or canons you are utilizing, (2) define both techniques, tools, or canons, and (3) make an argument using those techniques, tools, or canons to support your client’s position that its actions are not in violation of the statute at issue. (2.5 points) For Subpart 3, presume a lawsuit has now been filed against ACME in a state trial court in West Virginia (in West Virginia the state trial courts are called circuit courts as shown in the diagram below). If the federal United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit has already held, in interpreting a similar federal statute, that companies maintaining oil reserve pits on their properties do not violate the federal statute by maintaining the pit, would this decision constitute binding precedent in your case? Why or why not? (1.8 points)The diagrams provided are for informational purposes only and may or may not be relevant to your answer.
