16. Lesson 3-3: The Federal System 7 R It is meant to prevent a law being passed to make a past action illegal. Some countries will discover an action they do not like, but is not against the law. So they pass the law to make that action illegal and then apply it to people that broke that law before it was passed. An example would be if man was riding his motorcycle in Pennsylvania WITHOUT a helmet, as the law allows. A PA State Trooper, during a routine traffic stop, notes he is not wearing a helmet and mentions he should The man says he doesn’t care what the officer thinks and will not wear a helmet because it is not required by law. The next day, the Pennsylvania General Assembly passes a bill that is signed by the governor requiring all riders of motorcycles to wear helmets. A day later, the same PA State Trooper pulls over the same man who is now wearing a helmet for a routine traffic stop and remembers the incident from two days ago. The State Trooper gives him a ticket for not wearing his helmet earlier. NOT ALLOWED because you are getting punished for a law after the fact. POWERS DENIED TO THE NATIONAL AND STATE GOVERNMENTS
