For example, Roxanne writes, "Jay-Z has ignored calls to dump the deal." She backs her statement with a direct quote from Jay-Z, "I move and speak based on facts and not emotions." This article also includes a little jargon in regards to her belief that Jay-Z should stand up to racism. “It wouldn't be the first time "dirty money" was flipped and used for a better purpose", Roxanne states. This article is solely the writer’s opinions and in my opinion the jargon was appropriate.
Common laws provide a resolution for courts if the similar case is presented in the future, making sure they have the same outcome. An example of a common law case is Flagiello v. Pennsylvania Hospital, 208 A.2d 193 (Pa1965). In this case, Flagiello was a patient that sued a hospital in Pennsylvania because she hurt herself on hospital property. The hospital said the injury was not related to the original purpose of admission. Her case was dismissed because the common law stated that hospitals, which are charitable institutions, could not be sued for negligence.
Assignment #1Davis v. County Commissioners of Dona-Ana Davis v. County Commissioners of Dona-Ana Shunovia Crenshaw Instructor: Dr. Jean Gordon Business Employment Law HRM510 Date 4/22/2012 Abstract Davis v. The Board of County Commissioners of Dona-Ana was sued by a female complaining that they were liable for the abuse she received by Mr. Herrera. Mr. Herrera was hired by Mesilla Valley Hospital under the assumption that he was an outstanding person and they had received an exemplary report from his previous employer. Because of the reference they received they hired him. He resigned from the other job because he was accused of sexually abusing a female inmate while under his care. The plaintiff is suing because she feels that the detention center is liable for the actions of Mr. Herrera.
(Ivers, p.33) A legal team lead by Thomas Emerson represented Griswold and Buxton in this case. Emerson argued that the “liberty” part of the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment was too broad to encompass the right to privacy that allowed married couples to get information and use birth control. The court struck down the Connecticut law saying that it violated the right of privacy protected by the US Constitution. (Ivers, p.33) According to the 53-32 of the General Statutes of Connecticut provided that "Any person who uses any drug, medicinal article or instrument for the purpose of preventing conception shall be fined not less than fifty dollars or imprisoned not less than sixty days nor more than one year or be both fined and imprisoned." and 54-196 of the General Statutes of Connecticut states “Any person who assists, abets, counsels, causes, hires or commands another to commit any offense may be prosecuted and punished as if he were the principal offender."
She is unhappy about the unnecessary expense this statute imposes on her business and intends to file suit against the state of Confusion in an attempt to overturn the statute. In this paper I will discuss, which court will have jurisdiction over Tanya’s suit and whether the statute set-up by the state of Confusion is constitutional. I will list the stages in a civil suit and explore what provisions of the United States Constitution will be functional by the courts to determine the statute’s validity. Because the state of Confusion set- up this law, most likely they will not bulge in changing the law. Especially if one views that Tanya Trucker is the only complainant.
During court proceedings in early December, the sisters claimed that Lawson had allowed their use of the credit cards in exchange for their silence regarding her drug use. Questions regarding Lawson's drug use were allowed by the judge as part of the sisters' "bad character" defence. Nigella admitted to taking cocaine and cannabis but denied she had been addicted, stating that she found it made an intolerable situation tolerable. On 20 December 2013, the two sisters were found not guilty . The metropolitan police confirmed that Nigella would not be the subject of an investigation based on claims made in court that she consumed cocaine; however, the
This clearly shows that the accused would have received an unfair trial due to his unjust jury. Another event of significance would be Tom Robinson having visited Mayella Ewell prior to the supposed rape without any physical contact occurring as stated by Tom Robinson,”she’d call me in, suh, she seemed like every time I passed by yonder she’d have some little something for me to do-choppin’ kindlin’, totin’ water for her.”(Lee 191) This statement suggests that their relationship was platonic at best. There was no emotional response on the side of Tom Robinson. These events hold as much if not more importance than the evidence given during the trial. Many Factors contributed to the fact that Tom Robinson did not receive a fair trial.
In the case of Donoghue v Stevenson (1932), the House of Lords decided that a person should be able to sue another who caused them loss or damage even if there is no contractual relationship. “Donoghue was given a bottle of ginger beer by a friend, who had purchased it for her. After drinking half the contents, she noticed that the bottle contained a decomposing snail and suffered nervous shock as a result. Under tort law, Donoghue was unable to sue the café owner because her friend was party to the contract, not her. However, the House of Lords decided to create a new principle of law that stated everyone has a duty of care to their neighbour, and this abled Donoghue to successfully sue the manufacturer for the damages.” In order to prove negligence and claim damages, the plaintiff has to prove a number of elements to the court.
Victims and others affiliated in the shooting sued Glock, claiming negligent marketing and public nuisance. Glock aimed for a dismissal for two reasons, that they could not be held liable for the criminal acts of Furrow and as the manufacturer, Glock owed no duty of care to the third-party victims of Furrow's firearm misuse. Furrow's criminal firearm misuse constituted a superseding cause of the victims' injuries for which Glock could not be held responsible. This was before the PLCAA was enacted. This claim had not come to a conclusion prior to the PLCAA, therefore, still
I assume crack or cocaine by their demeanor. But why does prostitution have to be a drug driven need for money? If this woman could work as a prostitute legitimately and have the same benefits and right as everyone else, would she be in the same condition she is now? If prostitution were legal this woman could have a chance at living as a regular functioning member of society. People see only the negative sides of prostitution, like how it encourages sex out of wedlock
