violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2250(a). In a motion to dismiss, Lance challenged the
constitutionality of the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA) –
specifically, 42 U.S.C. § 16913(d) – under the non-delegation doctrine. On appeal,
he argues that the district court erred in denying his motion to dismiss. To the
contrary, as decided in United States v. Kuehl, 706 F. 3d 917, 920 (8th Cir. 2013),
SORNA does not violate the non-delegation doctrine.
The judgment is affirmed.
