The Supreme Court held that Lester Ray Nichols, a registered sex offender, was not required under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA) to update his registration in Kansas after moving to the Philippines. The Court reversed the Tenth Circuit's decision, which had affirmed Nichols' conviction for failing to update his registration. The decision clarified that SORNA's requirements did not extend to foreign jurisdictions and that Nichols' move to the Philippines did not necessitate updating his registration in Kansas.
