Questions presented

  1. Whether petitioner knowingly accessed a public computer “without authorization” within the meaning of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1030(a)(2), or conspired to do so, when he accessed a public computer system which anyone could access and use to obtain information, but navigated to a certain area within the computer system that limited access.

  2. Whether the evidence was sufficient to establish that appellant a) falsely represented a number to be the social security account number assigned to him, or b) conspired to commit that offense, since the draft applications for unemployment were never submitted.
