Answer:

In that particular case Dale would have none of these defenses because:

- <u>He cannot allege duress</u> because his life was not threatened in any situation, he has a safe way to escape and avoid the crime.

- <u>He cannot allege mistake</u> because even when Phil (undercover agent assigned) was thinking that he (Dale) was breaking the FCPA laws, the crime was not commited yet. Dale effectively commited a violation knowing the laws and consequences.

- He cannot allege entrapment because he was not pushed or encouraged by Phil (FBI undercover agent) to do the crime, Dale commited the violation without the influence of any law officer.

The correct option will be option "D".
