Peter Brown has lived in his home since he was a child. Now the department of parks and recreation wants to tear down his neighborhood to build a park. A government official comes to visit Peter and offers to buy the house from him. Peter refuses. The official says that the government will now seize the property under the constitutional power of “eminent domain.” According to the U.S. Constitution, under what circumstances would Peter win his fight to keep his home?

If the government did not make a reasonable effort to build the park in an uninhabited area.

If Peter was born a citizen of the United States, not a naturalized citizen or resident.

If the government did not offer him fair market price for his home.

If Peter could prove that he has paid the full price of the house already.

A woman was accused of shoplifting in a neighborhood department store. She went to trial and the jury found her "not guilty". However, the store owner found video footage after the trial, proving that the woman did shoplift. The owner takes the evidence to the district attorney. How will the district attorney respond?

After seeing this evidence, the woman may admit her wrongdoing and plead guilty to a lesser charge.

The woman cannot be convicted because she was not advised of her right to legal counsel.

With this evidence, the woman will probably be convicted on her second trial.

The woman cannot be tried again because this would violate the ban on "double jeopardy".
