Whether the appeal concerns the judgment or a judge’s behavior an appeals court reviews what happened in the proceedings of the trial and looks for any errors that may have occurred. If the appeals court finds any errors that contributed to the court’s decision, the court will reverse the decision. In this case the judge was completely rude and threw insults at Schmidt.

The Federal District Court upheld the tiebreaker and dismissed the charges because they said that State law did not bar the District’s use of the racial tiebreaker. They said the State’s Civil Rights Act bars only preferential treatment programs where race or gender is used by government to select a less qualified applicant over a more qualified applicant. The Parents appealed and the Circuit Court reversed the decision. The Court found that while achieving racial diversity and avoiding racial isolation are compelling government interests, Seattle’s use of the racial tiebreaker was not narrowly tailored to achieve these interests. The District appealed this decision and the Ninth Circuit Court sat En Banc to hear the case.
Second, a prosecution must then involve the same offense. Last, the prosecutions must be given by the same government entity. The federal and state government are separate sovereign entities, each entity have the power to prosecute for violations of their laws. This leads into the first question, “..why under certain circumstances a state trial and a federal trial may be held for the murder of the same person without violating the double jeopardy clause..” This answer is found within the dual sovereign doctrine.

The most important policy concern has always been the “floodgates argument”. This is when judges are reluctant to impose duty on the defendants because the judges fear that it will “open the floodgates of litigation” and unlimited claims can arise out of a one incident. It is considered to be not fair, just and reasonable to impose duty on defendants disproportionate to his fault. It is well illustrated in Spartan Steel v Martin & Co, where the claimant claimed the loss of potential profit which he would have made if the defendant did not negligently damage the cable which provided electricity to the claimant’s factory. However, the courts found that there was no duty owed by the defendant as Lord Denning stated that impose duty on defendant in such circumstance will lead to “no end of claims” .
A Separate Peace Essay Have you ever known that a friend or someone you knew had done something terrible, but just couldn’t accept it or admit it to yourself because of what would change?

Individuals, coaches, and clubs, have brought equal protection claims against many institutions having selfishly destroyed men’s teams, but courts seem to be reluctant. For a valid equal protection claim (EPC), "a plaintiff must allege in the pleadings that the government intentionally discriminated against [them] by classifying him or her for different treatment under the law than one similarly situated" (Bentley pg. 9). This notion seems to be paradoxical, having courts decisions endorsing the elimination of men’s games. There is a continuing rejection of court cases involving the violations of Title IX using the EPC method, proving that reform is necessary.
