ORDER DENYING MOTION TO DISMISS
JOHN A. WOODCOCK, JR., Chief Judge.
Charged with violating the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SONA), Kenneth Thompson moves to dismiss the Indictment; the Court denies the motion. It concludes that SORNA does not violate the non-delegation doctrine, the Commerce Clause, the freedom to travel, the Due Process Clause, the Ex Post Facto Clause, and that venue is proper in the District of Maine.
