Answer to Discussion Question
’ ’ ’

Should’the’common’law’maxim’“Ignorance’of’the’law’is’no’excuse”‘apply’to’an’immigrant’who’speaks’little’En
glish’and’was’not’educated’in’the’United’States?’How’about’for’a’tourist’who’does’not’speak’English?’Everyo
ne’knows’criminal’acts’are’prohibited,’but’what’about’subtler’rules’that’differ’across’countries’and’so’may’be’

as’illegal’was’not’excuse).’The’courts’have’provided’a’small’exception’to’the’rule’when’it’comes’to’peopl
e’in’lack’of’English’language’skills.’Consider’Flanery’v.’Kuska,’(defendant’did’not’speak’English’was’advis
ed’by’a’friend’that’an’answer’to’a’complaint’was’not’required);’Ramon’v.’Dept.’of’Transportation,’(no’En
glish’and’an’inability’to’understand’the’law’required’for’an’excuse);’Yurechko’v.’County’of’Allegheny,’(Ig
norance’and’with’the’fact’that’the’municipality’suffered’no’hardship’in’late’lawsuit’filing’was’an’excuse).
