Beware older questions. PRACTICE. Sample question*: Let’s talk about the MBE. A young man suggested to his friend that they steal a large- screen TV from a neighbor’s house. The friend was angry with the young man and decided to use the opportunity to get even with him by having him arrested. The friend said he would help, and that night, he drove the young man to the neighbor’s house. The young man broke in while the friend remained outside. The friend called the police on his cell phone and then drove away. Police officers arrived at the scene just as the young man was carrying the TV out the back door. The jurisdiction defines crimes as at common law. Of what crime, if any, can the friend properly be convicted? (A) No crime. (B) Conspiracy. (C) Burglary. (D) Conspiracy and larceny. *copyright NCBE
