3. CRequires an immunity for her husband
4. DDoes not include a right to die

D takes a college exam paper, reads it and returns it, planning to cheat. Following Oxford v Moss, D did not steal because:

4. DD was a student at the college

Under the "transferred malice" doctrine, if A aims a blow at B but hits C:

4. DA's intention towards B is transferred, so A can be liable for the harm to C
