United States v. Yates deals with a man being prosecuted under 18 U.S.C § 1519. The twist is that the tangible object[s]” that Yates destroyed were fish. Yates petition argued that the statute didnt give fair notice that it applied to things such as fish, rather, referred to objects such as disk drives, records or documents. You can read more about the case here, but our question to you is this: Can fish be considered as tangible objects in a court of law?
