Constitution and the Law

Question 1
In the curtilage of my house, I have a reasonable expectation of privacy.  What is considered curtilage?  What if my neighbors that live behind me can look out their upstairs window and view into my backyard, do I still maintain a reasonable expectation of privacy in this area?  While backyards have repeatedly been held to be curtilage and therefore protected from warrantless searches under the Fourth Amendment, what about the neighbors.  Should they be considered the public and therefore my expectation of privacy diminished?

Question 2
Does sentencing a juvenile to life in prison without the possibility of parole constitute cruel and unusual punishment?  Why or why not? What are the viable options?
Question 3
Describe a situation when observations from aircraft are not permissible under plain view doctrine. Provide support for your argument.
