CBP Officer Entrance Exam Questions And
Answers
Often, crimes are characterized as either malum in se—inherently evil—or malum prohibitum—
criminal because they are declared as offenses by a legislature. Murder is an example of the former.
Failing to file a tax return illustrates the latter. Some jurisdictions no longer distinguish between
crimes malum in se and malum prohibitum, although many still do.
From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that
some jurisdictions still distinguish between crimes malum in se and malum prohibitum
A trucking company can act as a common carrier—for hire to the general public at published rates. As
a common carrier, it is liable for any cargo damage, unless the company can show that it was not
negligent. If the company can demonstrate that it was not negligent, then it is not liable for cargo
damage. In contrast, a contract carrier (a trucking company hired by a shipper under a specific
contract) is only responsible for cargo damage as spelled out in the contract. A Claus Inc. tractor-
trailer, acting under common carrier authority, was in a 5- vehicle accident that damaged its cargo. A
Nichols Inc. tractor-trailer, acting under contract carrier authority, was involved in the same accident,
and its cargo was also damaged.
From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that, in reference to the accident,
if Claus Inc. can show that it was not negligent, then it is not liable
A rapidly changing technical environment in government is promoting greater reliance on electronic
mail (email) systems. As this usage grows, there are increasing chances of conflict between the users'
expectations of privacy and public access rights. In some investigations, access to all e-mail, including
those messages stored in archival files and messages outside the scope of the investigation, has been
sought and granted. In spite of this, some people send messages through e-mail that would never be
said face-to-face or written formally.
From the information given above, it CANNOT be validly concluded that
some e-mail messages that have been requested as part of investigations have contained messages
that would never be said face-to-face
Phyllis T. is a former Federal employee who was entitled to benefits under the Federal Employee
Compensation Act because of a job-related, disabling injury. When an eligible Federal employee has
such an injury, the benefit is determined by this test: If the beneficiary is married or has dependents,
benefits are 3/4 of the person's salary at the time of the injury; otherwise, benefits are set at 2/3 of
the salary. Phyllis T.'s benefits were 2/3 of her salary when she was injured.
From the information given above, it can be validly concluded that, when Phyllis T. was injured, she
was not married and had no dependents

above,
some of the engineers were immigrants
